The photographs in Remains to be Seen represent a new way of looking at the landscape and ideas that permeate our current political discourse. The images, taken with a drone with the camera aiming straight down, represents the latest technology both in terms of technology and how the photographs were made. Drones are able to fly hundreds of feet below helicopters and airplanes, a perspective that gives a more intimate view of the land below. The content of the images looks at signs of the past such as lost cultures such as the borscht-belt resorts in the catskills, the rust-belt steel towns of the industrial midwest or the former coal industry of central Pennsylvania. The photographs also look at how past institutional racism altered the landscape and is visual today such as in red-lined cities of Baltimore and Oakland. Finally, we can see environmental changes such as the dried up Lake Owens in California after Los Angeles funnelled every last drop for drinking water.
