The artistic works of South African photographer Zak van Biljon explore the mysterious technical and visual world of infrared light. Due to van Biljon’s usage of the unique infrared technique and due to his controlled staging of light, van Biljon’s photographs depict organic material in electric pinks and vibrant reds. These unconventional visual effects prey upon our perception of representations of nature and stimulate the viewer to experience his surroundings in unconventional ways.
