Take a look at Alain Paiement. He is a canadian artist that constructs photographs of space in a way he calls "building photogrpaphy." He has been around for a while, touching on architecture, anthropology and all form. His pictures have a ways locating yourself, of finding were we sit in relation to the image. It's like viewing the earth from space and how the view reorients us in a way that lets us understand how the world works on it's own. We inhabit the earth, yet it moves on it's own. The bubbles are just there and we orbit around them. Country Base
