Steve Harries explores the force and fragility of our environment. In his book Octopus, Harries has produced a corpus of photographs of mountains, inspired in particular by the geological processes behind their formation. His experience with still life photography has also inspired him to hone in on certain geological details. Recently, his discovery of Marianne Moore’s poem “An Octopus” changed how he views his own photographs, prompting him to organize them differently. He has therefore put together a more freely composed sequence, emulating Moore’s approach by overlaying images created in differing ways and instilling a bold formal dialogue that encourages a new appreciation of mountain landscapes.
