Austin Bell, a photographer initially from North Carolina whose work turns strange city surfaces into one thing near summary artwork.
He’s greatest recognized for a undertaking that started in 2017 when he first visited Hong Kong and observed how town’s outside basketball courts stood out in opposition to the vertical density—flat, brightly coloured, and nearly hidden among the many buildings. Over 4 winter visits and roughly 140 days of taking pictures, he used a drone to {photograph} all 2,549 outside basketball courts throughout Hong Kong, typically capturing greater than 100 in a single day. The collection, Taking pictures Hoops, turned a photobook and an exhibition at Blue Lotus Gallery, and the photographs learn like concrete crop circles—geometric, saturated, and unusually stunning from above.
