Doug Fogelson

"Chemical Alterations 2012-2022" presents a photographic series by Doug Fogelson that reflects the range of impacts caused by climate change around the planet. Using a process that combines traditional landscape photography with a chemical bath of toxic cleaning products to alter the original analogue film, Fogelson illustrates what are often invisible changes to the environment. Such changes culminate as disastrous events like fire, flood, drought, increasingly powerful storms and overall global warming. Images of natural spaces that include mountains, deserts, volcanoes, jungles, ocean, rivers, and forests become represented in a state of flux and heading for abstraction with artefacts from the alterations such as bubbles, crystals, fingerprints, and dust embedded in the film emulsion.
