I stumbled across this body of work by Allison Wermager and Alexander M Harrington, titled Artificial Sunset, via i heart photograph. At first I was very resistant to them but I was somehow drawn to continue looking at them. The juxtapositions of the black and white photographs and bright colors do some strange things to my eyes, and I’m not sure how I feel about that. But I am really enjoying the experience of looking at the images (see them a bit larger on the website). I think it would be interesting to see some wall-sized prints of these.

I was disappointed to find out that there is no statement of any sort on their website, so I’m a bit in the dark as to the reason and method for this imagery.
