cameraTrap

Looking towards a world without humans, the chernobyl wildlife and the wasteland series, led me towards, camera traps. Remote automated cameras are set up with sensors to “capture” images of wild animals.
 * Project Name:** Camera Trap
 * Project Credits:** Steve Winter
 * Project Brief Description:**

These images are sublime, candid and exhilarating, but in a way, kind of perverse.

Our need to see the “true wild”, makes us go to very extreme lengths. This strange urge to record and track animals which are so rare almost solely due to the same such human interventions.

It’s particularly perverse as the only ones to survive do so only because their intrinsic elusiveness has protected them from complete extinction.

We try to break that down, our own voyeurism, destroying that which we fetishize.
