Fragilis

These images explore the notions of impermanence caused by the impact of the digital in photography's new realm. I travelled to Iceland to shoot this work and was interested in placing a lone figure in the inhospitable, fragile Icelandic environment that is threatened by erasure. Similarly contemporary photography's digital expression risks it's legacy as lasting cultural artefact due to the ubiquity of image making becoming the enemy of quality and the recording of history. Shooting with a drone and iPhone I contemplate the archival uncertainty of the digital image in a threatened landscape
