Richard Mosse
Richard Mosse (b. 1980) lives and works in New York and Ireland. Situated at the interstice between photojournalism and contemporary art, his work is at once aesthetically bold and fraught with political and ethical implications. Mosse realizes increasingly ambitious projects that interlace testimonial footage of historically significant events with conceptual analysis, meticulous research, and visual impact. Ultimately, his practice locates points of tension within contemporary photographic representation. Recent projects have appropriated geographic information system (GIS), satellite imaging and historical military surveillance technology to document political and ecological crises including the deforestation of tropical rainforests in the Amazon, the civil war in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and European refugee and migration policy.
