Zombiescapes

This series of images stems from scenes in zombie films in which the camera is zoomed out providing an expansive view of the landscape surrounding mostly-unidentified bodies. The titles indicate which zombie movies are depicted. The landscapes are rendered in oil on linen allowing for a situation in which figures visibly blend into their environment, and vice versa. The photos magnify small areas of each painting, examining the blended edges and grotesque interiors of each body.
