Dustin Keirns

Lives and works in Denver, CO, USA

Artist statement

Since returning to Colorado in 2015, Dustin has made the state's backcountry a central protagonist in his work. The photographs blend the reality of the wilderness with the imaginative dramas of epic landscapes and alluring light. The intersection of humans and wilderness begins with roads that lead us to trails, granting us the opportunity to experience wild places. Through these adventures we gain insight into our intrinsic connection to the environment and what it means to live on planet Earth.
