About the Work
Kim Keever's large-scale photographs are created by meticulously constructing miniature topographies in a 200-gallon water tank. These dioramas of fictitious environments are brought to life with colored lights and the dispersal of pigment, producing ephemeral atmospheres that the artist quickly captures with his large-format camera.
About the Artist
Kim Keever's painterly, panoramic photographs represent the evolution of landscape painting embodied by the Hudson River School, Luminism, and Romanticism. Artificially contrived by the artist, Keever meticulously constructs his dioramas in a 200-gallon water tank and then submerges them in water. Working quickly to capture the diffusion of pigments with a large-format camera, he makes photographic glimpses into a world that is both familiar and fantastic, awash in unnatural colors.
