Underbridge




As in his previous atmospheric photography series, Krall plays upon the notion of survival and urban decay by displaying a type of hyper-real imaging focused on the tranquility and silence amidst a barren urban interior. The viewer is invited to study the landscape in light of the camera's role as witness and creator of truth. Compared to his classmates, Krall has gained relatively little attention; this may change with his latest work. If you stare at his photographs long enough, you may imagine a world without humans.

Zach Krall is currently enrolled as a Junior Photography major at Concordia University Wisconsin. The remainder of his art instruction takes place at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. (Eric Zimmermann)

This picture has an eerie feeling of the world of the shell dwellers from the film THX1138. There is just a feeling of a man made jungle devoid of life.
