Nick Brandt: The Day May Break, Chapter Two

  • 14 Sep 22

ATLAS is delighted to announce the release of Nick Brandt’s new chapter from his ongoing series The Day May Break.

In 2020, Brandt photographed the first chapter of The Day May Break in Kenya and Zimbabwe. Earlier this year, he photographed Chapter Two in Bolivia. The Day May Break is an ongoing global series portraying people and animals that have been impacted by environmental degradation and destruction. ⁠
⁠
The people in the photos have all been badly affected by climate change, from extreme droughts to floods that destroyed their homes and livelihoods. ⁠
⁠
The photographs were all taken at Senda Verde Animal Sanctuary where the animals are all rescues, victims of everything from habitat destruction to wildlife trafficking. These animals can never be released back into the wild. Because they were nearly all habituated, it was safe for human strangers to be close to them, photographed together in the same frame. ⁠
⁠
The fog is the unifying visual, symbolic of the natural world rapidly fading from view. Created by fog machines on location, the fog is also an echo of the smoke from wildfires, intensified by climate change, devastating so much of the planet. ⁠
⁠
In spite of their loss, these people and animals are the survivors. And therein lies hope and possibility. ⁠
