Richard Mosse

A pink hillside with cows grazing on it from 'Infra' by Richard Mosse.

At first glance, one could be forgiven for assuming Richard Mosse's photography is of a dream landscape. Indeed, something about his Infra series has elements of Dr.Seuss with its bright other-worldly colour. The truth is quite the contrary however, instead portraying a living nightmare for many - the ongoing conflicts of the Eastern Congo.

The natural landscape however is clearly breathtaking. The juxtaposition of warfare against such a stunning backdrop is haunting, emphasised by Mosse's manipulation of colour.
