Virgina Goode Artist Post 9

Evan Anderman





Evan Anderman is a social-landscape photographer who makes pictures from his airplane. Most of his work are pictures of Eastern Colorado, deserts and forests in Western United States, Antarctica, and Iceland.  His airplane gives him a better advantage to capture more of these landscapes.


Anderman’s goal is to portray these landscapes with more optimism. This could be a challenge considering the damage humanity has contributed to these landscapes. His images capture the beauty of the land as well as the perspective of humans coexisting on the land.


I think Anderman has a very abstract approach in the message he is trying to relay. Without researching more into his series In Plain Sight, I thought these images were just cool, colorful, aerial views. They’re actually represent so much more. Essentially it’s an eye-opener on how us humans and the earth should attempt coexist without damaging each other.
