The cityscape extended to the sky
In Colour Field, a new and ongoing series, Paterson collaborates with astro-photographers to create photographs of deep space in which the image’s false colors (there are no colors in photos of deep space, only digitally added in) are replaced by colors borrowed from our terrestrial world. In the first work from this series, Paterson has produced a large-scale photograph of the Milky Way and infused it with the color-scape of the Los Angeles night sky. In this vast and incredibly detailed photo, the city lights are merging with the stars.
Colour Field is a photographic image whose false colours have been removed, rendering it black and white, and then retinted with colours from Earth. In this image, the colours from the cityscape of Los Angeles are merged with the stellar landscape of the Milky Way.
