Ingrid Burrington’s large-scale lenticular prints show politically and technologically significant sites – data centers, air bases, space stations, downlinks – captured by high-resolution aerial photography. The lenticulars show two versions of a single location at different points in time, to reveal the instability and shifting realities of satellite views. We see sites before and after data centers’ construction, building details camouflaged by filters, and whole locations blurred out in censorship. The aerial views show calibration markers at the John C. Stennis Space Center in Mississippi that are used to determine light balance in cameras attached to aircraft and rockets. The two versions suggest the markers have fallen into disrepair over time.
