Joanna Steidle presents East Coast Aerials, a new collection that transforms the landscapes of the American East Coast through the perspective of drone photography. An internationally award-winning professional drone pilot and visual artist, Steidle has developed a distinctive practice using aerial photography to reveal patterns, relationships, and moments that are only visible from above. Working at the intersection of technology, photography, and contemporary art, her images turn familiar coastal environments into striking compositions of colour, geometry, movement, and scale.
In East Coast Aerials, beaches, ocean, architecture, and human activity are viewed from an entirely different perspective. From high above, the landscape begins to lose its familiar scale: coastlines become graphic forms, groups of people become patterns, and fleeting moments of movement are transformed into carefully composed visual studies.
