ZOE WETHERALL
Lines of Nature
Through her photography, Zoe Wetherall seeks to portray the structured geometry of both natural and constructed forms, using her camera to reveal the beauty of the subtle patterns hidden in the landscapes and architecture all around us.
Originally from Melbourne, Wetherall has been a resident of New York City since 2016. This series, focusing on US and Australian locations and shot from the baskets of hot-air balloons in flight, showcases her two home countries from a unique vantage point. Familiar landscapes become something quite different when viewed from great heights, with the distance sorting the noise and action of humanity far below into orderly, abstract designs.
The pronounced contrast of natural settings against the starkness of the built environment is of particular interest to Wetherall. Using a literal bird’s-eye view enables her to document this contrast and employ the visible landscape as a means of abstraction.
