Worth Its Weight in Gold by Dillon Marsh

August 13, 2018 by Arseny Vesnin in Photography, Portfolios, South African Republic, Digital Art, 2018

South African photographer Dillon Marsh has created ‘Gold’: his fourth project (previously) that utilizes CGI techniques as part of the photographic series titled ‘For What It’s Worth’.

"The series explores a significant part of South Africa’s history; the mining of natural resources such as copper, gold, and diamonds, and the effect this has had on the land over time. In ‘Gold’, Marsh uses CGI to create a scale model of the total amount of gold extracted from each of the seven Witwatersrand Basin goldfields. For context, the Witwatersrand Basin is a geological formation responsible for almost half the world’s gold reserves. Marsh’s enormous gold spheres are juxtaposed against the land from which the gold is produced. The result is a poignant series of photographic images that speak loudly about our capitalistic demand for gold." via iGNANT
