Sanborn traveled with a generator, a large format projector and camera equipment to create this series. The generator and projector would provide a steady light source upon the subject while a camera would capture a long exposure of the scene. The result is a collection of eight magnificent photographs of natural and mathematic art. Today’s projection mapping artists could find a lot of inspiration in these early, still images. Most projection mapping is performed in cities on architecture, and this throwback to nature’s architecture is inspiring indeed. [via designboom]
