Abstracts on earth

It is difficult to determine who or what is the author of these fanciful shapes and patterns on the ground visible only from a bird's eye view. Is it man, chance or nature? The photos were taken over industrial areas. They are slowly being adapted by nature. The first to appear there are birds. Their traces are often visible on the ground. It is fascinating to explore from the air these areas and discover their artistic potential. We were interested in using these structures, rich in interesting details, as a starting point for creating abstract artworks.

We are Barbara and Maciej Noskowski, a husband and wife team of award-winning photographers, visual artists and travellers. We have many years of experience in aerial photography, taken from various aircrafts and drones. As world travellers we visited over 60 countries and 16 states in the USA. Our editorial photos were published among others in National Geographic, Cosmopolitan, Lonely Planet, Condé Nast Traveller, Vogue, Grazia, Bloomberg, The Guardian. We are the authors of the cover photos of many books by famous authors such as Zoe Valdez, or Olga Tokarczuk - Nobel Prize winner 2019.
