Glacial Futures - Artist Talk

Blake Burton is an American photographer and architect based in Atlanta, Georgia. Through photography, Burton’s work lies in the art of purposeful exploration, adopting the role of a curious observer in search of landscapes that mirror his internal yearning to merge with the shadows and construct a world characterized by tranquil disquiet. From 2010-2016 Burton documented the transformation of the largest building in Atlanta, Ponce City Market, leading to the publication of his first monograph in 2018 by Schiffer Publishing.
