The parking lot became an ice rink on the first freeze. People were skating! - Limited Edition 2 of 5 Photograph

#Crowdsourced Landscapes I have been thinking about the experiences of future climate change, our perception of the future landscape, and how we imagine our own landscapes changing from our memories of them over the course of our lifetimes. The threat of climate change and the future shifts that it will cause to the physical landscape will cause adaptations to our recollections of our personally meaningful landscapes. After photographing in the landscape in the traditional photographic manner, I move to the studio. The imagery is created using LEDs that allow me to "play" my own landscape photographs, column of pixels by column of pixels, over time while dancing with light in front of the lens. A 6' column of LEDs, what is essentially a portable light stick with a handle, visualizes my landscape images and allows me to move it fluidly over long exposures in front of a static camera. The resulting experimental landscapes generated by the LEDs contain traces of the world, as if from a future memory. I began developing this body of work while in residence in Finland over 4.5 months during the summer and fall of 2014. A desire to experience a place that will change over the course of my lifetime drew me to Finland, the first of the Arctic landscapes that I have created in this style of work. Through silent hikes, sauna sessions, and personal conversations on and in local landscapes, I was shown places on the precipice of change. These landscapes are the future memories of a warming globe.
