The Charm Of Landscapes; The Link Between Man And Nature
Brooke Holm Is A New York-Based Photographer Who Travels The World To Capture The Beauty Within In A Compelling Swirl Of Textures And Colors.
Brooke Holm’s striking aerial images blur the fine line between art and photography, instilling a sense of calm in the viewer while raising awareness of the increasing fragility of our planet. Holm was born in California and raised in Australia.
He has consistently grown up with a passion for travel and an interest in the natural world. He has worked on commercial, editorial, and exemplary art projects. He has consistently gained international acclaim for his distinctive perspective on composition, light, and texture and his unique ability to imbue dramatic natural landscapes with emotion.
Brook Holm’s photographs range from the dusty pinks and burnt reds of the world’s oldest desert, the Namib Sand Sea in South Africa, to the Mars-like landscapes of Death Valley in the United States or Lake Tyrrell in Australia.
He has created beautiful images to show our complex and unique ecosystems.
The result of Holmes’ project is diverse and delicate landscapes with an almost painterly quality where textures and shapes collide and colors blend.
Holm’s photographs invite viewers to immerse themselves in nature at altitude with helicopters and airplanes, offering a new perspective that transcends the limits of our imagination. Brooke Holm says:
By disrupting the scale in which we usually observe the natural world, we get away from our usual way of seeing and become acquainted with something strange. From here, we can see that everything is connected.
With her raw photographs, Holm targets the concepts of coexistence and connection to advance the effort to protect our planet. He says:
In exploring the world’s impact on us and our impact on the planet, I create images that honor the sublime elements of nature while also exploring the human fabric.
By documenting a changing world, Holm advocates for the reasonable use of resources, the conservation of natural resources, and, most importantly, climate justice.
