Biography
Bernhard Edmaier, born in 1957, had been a geologist before he made photography his profession 25 years ago and founded a photographic agency ‘Geophot – Pictures of the Earth’. Geology constitutes the basis of his photography. It is his aim to present the manifold colours, forms and structures which the Earth has created without man’s interference. The technique he uses in his work is aerial photography.
For the last 25 years, Bernhard Edmaier has been taking pictures of the earth predominantly in places where it was formed by natural forces alone over long geological time periods. His aim is to present the manifold structures which the Earth created without man’s touch.
Bernhard Edmaier has set new standards in landscape photography with his aerial images. His photo book „Earthsong“ released in 6 different languages by the art book publisher Phaidon/London made him internationally known.
Photo Art
Bernhard Edmaier about his work: "I view my work as a continuous expedition exploring the surface of our planet, especially in places where it was formed by the external forces of nature such as water, ice or wind or by its internal forces such as tectonic movements, volcanic or orogenetic power. Aerial photography is my instrument which enables me to take pictures of huge areas full of colourful forms and structures. Each photograph is a snapshot of a creative force which has perpetually been modeling and remodeling internal and external structures of the Earth for millions of years. Nothing on the surface of our planet is static and eternal - it is an ongoing interplay of coming into being and passing away."
