Matthew Albanese: Strange Worlds
Matthew Albanese makes amazing miniature landscapes through a variety of use of materials and photographic techniques.
I love the idea that you can have worlds all in one studio and the painstaking detail that’s gone into these.
Paprika Mars. Made out of 12 pounds paprika, cinnamon, nutmeg, chili powder and charcoal
Aurora Borealis. This one was made by photographing a beam of colored light against a black curtain to achieve the edge effect. The trees were composited from life ( so far the only real life element in any of these images) The stars are simply strobe light through holes in cork board
