Abstract or Description

Residency at Kilpisjärvi Biological Station in the Arctic Circle.

I plan on exploring relationships between remote sensing instruments and the landscapes they are embedded within. How do these instruments see and sense the Arctic landscape? Where are the gaps and glitches? What role do machine senses and environmental data play in shaping cultural perceptions of the polar ecologies?

Turning the lens back on the instruments, I will be photographing them in their natural contexts. These photographs, alongside excerpts of the digital ‘portraits’ these instruments produce of the landscape (charts, graphs, maps), will be collated into a printed publication – exploring the ecological perspectives of machines, and ways in which scientific instruments shape imaginaries of the far north.
