CoLOR & TEXTURE IN NATURE
By glitching a variety of photos found on Unsplash, I changed the typical perspective when imaging and viewing nature around the world.
Rich colors are typical of a rich nature.

There is a relationship between the beautiful sight of nature and its produced colors and textures. Through glitch art, I interrupt nature around Earth beautifully and extravagantly.
While using TextEdit, Photoshop, Audacity, and DataMosh, I was able to play with natural and artificial colors within nature while using the Earth's textures and unique features to interrupt the normal perspective taken upon when thinking of earthly elements.
Colors do not exist separately and independently within nature; they are constantly shifting in response to subtle gradations of light. It is language that, magnificently, gives them clear shape.

The method used to produce this work was unorthodox and altered by forces other than my own. Although I physically clicked the button and randomly deleted, copy/pasted, and typed nonsense, there was something out there deciding the image's future.
I find this interesting because I compare it to how humans interact with the Earth and its unique and beautiful nature. As I aimlessly interrupt the image file's content, I change its natural essence for my personal use, without a thought on the coverall consequence. Often I feel humans take advantage of the beautiful Earth we live on, and if we continue to live without awareness aimlessly, we will begin to see the world in a distorted way.
