Umetatechi, meaning ‘reclaimed land’ is a new series from Luke Garrett that explores the practise of land reclamation across Japan. Using found imagery of redeveloped sites, Luke has manipulated these scenes through a process known as pixel sorting, which renders these landscapes in a new dimension.
