Floating Worlds by Catherine Nelson

Catherine Nelson  born in Sydney 1970 is a visual artist who uses the digital medium to paint images together into personal and imaginary landscapes. Trained as a painter in Sydney and London and with years of experience in the creation of visual effects for feature films like Moulin Rouge and Harry Potter, she now has dedicates her skills to her own art work combining the techniques from both these worlds into a new contemporary art medium. Drawing upon hundreds of nature photographs, Nelson digitally stitches together each element in a process that takes months to complete. She now combines technique and experience to create these unique and imaginative landscapes, each one becoming its own detailed microcosm.

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home - run with us.

Maybe in those last moments he loved life more than he ever had before. Not just his life - anybody’s life; my life. All he’d wanted were the same answers the rest of us want. Where did I come from? Where am I going? How long have I got? — Blade Runner (1982)

the blomstrandbreen glacier, located in the svalbard archipelago (375 miles north of norway), has retreated nearly two kilometers since 1928, the year these sepia coloured photos were taken. the rate of glacial retreat has accelerated to 35 metres per year since 1960, and has only increased in the last decade. 

the colour photos were taken by christian aslund for greenpeace in 2002. in that time between the two sets of photos, the earth’s atmosphere has warmed by a little less than 1° C (1.8° F), and the oceans have in turn risen by about 15 centimetres.
