ALEXANDER LINDSAY
Alexander Lindsay creates photographic landscapes of extraordinary honesty and beauty. He has developed his own system to capture wilderness regions of the world at and beyond the edges of human influence. Alexander prints his ultra-high resolution images on an epic scale, and his limited edition prints are available for purchase. He also works on specific commissions for corporate clients and private collectors.
For the past 40 years, Alexander has brought his film and stills cameras to some of the most extreme situations and environments on the planet. From his earliest experiences living with the Maasai tribe, a five year spell within Afghanistan during the Soviet occupation, his extensive travels within Iraq during both Gulf Wars and his expeditions to film and photograph the wreck of the Titanic 4km beneath the ocean’s waves, Alexander has always sought to immerse himself in situations where, as he explains, ‘the imagination is rendered unnecessary’.
ST KILDA
For Alexander Lindsay, St Kilda represents one of the last truly wild frontiers of the British Isles. The islands’ towering sea stacks, Atlantic weather and abandoned settlements embody many of the themes that have defined his photographic career: solitude, scale and the enduring power of untamed landscapes. Created using painstaking ultra-high-resolution techniques and printed in carefully controlled editions, these works reward sustained viewing, revealing extraordinary levels of detail while conveying the emotional experience of standing before one of Europe’s most remote landscapes.
