Ep 250 - Cosmic Landscapes & Dark Matter with Zac Henderson

Zac Henderson has been shooting since he was 15, starting on his mother's film camera. These days he and his wife live and travel full time in a motorhome across the US, and that nomadic life feeds directly into his work. Zac's photography is rooted in astrophysics, geological time and the kind of perspective shifts that come from thinking seriously about humanity's place in the cosmos. That draws him to deserts, rock formations and volcanic landscapes, places that feel like they could exist on another planet entirely. In this episode he talks about his abstract Dark Matter series using magnets and iron filings, how recent high quality space imagery has influenced his thinking, and his experiments with full spectrum and infrared photography. He's also honest about the challenge of making work that communicates clearly in an era of AI generated imagery. I hope you enjoy the show!
