Photographer Caleb Charland on His Science-Inspired Photos
Artist Caleb Charland has made a name for himself in the world of photography with his creative photos inspired by scientific curiosity. In the 6.5-minute video above, Charland discusses how he illuminates the natural world through photos and how he’s inspired by the world of early experimental photographers.
For his recent project “Solar Plexus,” Charland placed a view camera on his chest while he lay on the ground. The resulting long-exposures captured star trails with blur patterns caused by Charland’s chest rising up and down as he breathed.
Here are some other photos and ideas by Charland:
