Aaron Hobson is photographer and Google Street View explorer. Born in Rochester, NY and now living in a remote town in the Adirondack mountains, Hobson is part of a new breed of contemporary artists finding places of interest and glimpses of human life through the lens of Google Street View. In his own words:
“In search of enchanted and remote lands typically only reserved for the eyes of its inhabitants, but now are captured on camera by the automated and aesthetically-neutered street view cars that linger. Void of the main character (self-portrait) and an internal view, these images represent the closing chapter of 4 years of cinemascapes with an external view of the world.”
Hobson’s work is reminiscent of Jon Rafman’s street view curations. For more, be sure to visit Aaron’s official site as well as his Facebook page where he routinely shares his latest discoveries.
