Jeff Baker

There is an abstracted beauty in destruction. Jeff Baker's photographs of charred timbers falling across a mountainous New Mexico landscape on first glance cast a gorgeous view of pattern, shadow and light. Closer inspection tells one that fires have wrought destruction to acres of natural wilderness, and reminds the viewer that all is not well. Baker's themes in this body of work tell a cautionary tale of what man has wrought with respect to climate change.

States Baker about the work, “In New Mexico, still in search of a more deconstructed view of the accuracy inherent in a photograph, I’ve played with abstractions that appeared in the Jemez landscape of burnt trees and mountain snow, within the living forest. These images are interspersed with more conventional landscapes to complete an essay linking the interplay between environmental collapse and our own pandemic disaster. The analogy of the fallen among survivors couldn’t be more stark.”
