The sheer power and splendor of nature in far-away places is the subject of Sam Krisch's photography. Over the last five years, Krisch has travelled to remote locations ranging from the Mohave Desert to Antarctica to capture stunning images of ice formations, turbulent waters, and desert landscapes. Krisch lives and works in Roanoke, Virginia.

This exhibition presents a selection of the artist's digital photographs created between 2013 and 2014. This work highlights his approach to composition that verges on the abstract, taking the work beyond documentation into a world of pristine, yet daunting, beauty. These sometimes idyllic landscapes are tinged with the perception that these worlds are slipping away due to human forces.

Krisch will discuss his work during this informal artist gallery talk.
