this island earth
“My inspiration for these photographs comes from the 1950s science-fiction classic This Island Earth (1955), a film I watched many times when I was a kid. The film features a planet being bombarded throughout by meteors and it has this fun, queasy colour-palette, which I wanted to emulate in my images. Ultimately, I was imagining these photographs as lobby-card stills, or film posters, for some forgotten sci-fi classic." October, 2024
