david maisel

I just found out about david maisel through an interview he did with geoff manaugh at archinet.com. maisel is most widely known for his aerial work, which includes extended studies of North American mines, clear-cut forests, urban sprawl, evaporation ponds and other peripheral industries of the Great Salt Lake...

apocalyptic landscapes... tension between natural and built landscape... beautiful, wonderful, terrifying... here are some of my favorites from his his collection Terminal Mirage (2003-2005) and Oblivion (2004-2006):










"Certain spatial fears seem endemic to the modern metropolis, and Los Angeles defines this term in ways that no other American city can approximate. This amorphous skein of strip malls and gated developments, highway entrance and exit ramps, lays unfurled over the landscape like a sheet over a recalcitrant cadaver. Surely the earth is dead beneath the sheer weight and breadth of this built form?"- D. Maisel
