Backyard Auroras observes the northern sky as a recurring presence within the familiar geography of the fjord. Working from a nearly fixed viewpoint, the sequence follows gradual transformations of atmosphere, reflection, and spatial perception as auroral light intensifies across the night. Illuminated rocks and still coastal water anchor the photographs within physical terrain while the sky becomes increasingly fluid and unstable. Repetition and variation gradually reorganize the landscape through changing light conditions, revealing how prolonged observation reshapes the experience of the Arctic coast.
