New Smoke-Based Photographs by Ken Hermann Capture Colorful Bursts Suspended Within an Industrial Corridor

Photographer Ken Hermann's simply titled project Smoke observes colorful clouds of the title’s subject matter as they disperse through industrial environments, each gaseous mass originating from a ladder at the center of the photograph. The works follow Hermann’s previous series Explosion 2.0, a group of explosive portraits which focused more on the fiery burst at the center of the frame rather than the smoke created by each. With this series the puffs of yellow, blue, orange, and pink clouds are closely documented, each work’s composition completely tied to the way in which the wind decided to turn.
