Mark Borthwick, London

About

This experimental photographic work by Mark Borthwick captures ritualistic structures against a dramatic sky split by striking red and blue color grading. Strong light leaks and organic film artifacts frame the top and bottom of the composition, creating an ethereal and abstracted visual effect. The structures feature slender vertical poles adorned with fabric ties and small bowls or offerings, silhouetted against the bright atmosphere. The overall aesthetic is raw and impressionistic, showcasing distinctive analogue textures and vivid color interplay. The piece reflects an artistic approach to landscape documentation, emphasizing atmosphere over precise realism.
