Photography

Hi all, I need a bit of help.

I’m looking to get further down the rabbit hole of interesting photographers, but I struggle to define what I’m after. My general misanthropy extends into photography, people are almost always the least interesting thing in the frame to me. Why would you waste film on faces, when you could be taking interesting images of some nice concrete or rusty iron?!

I love the work of Toshio Shibata, Bernd and Hilla Bescher, Bill Brandt, Danila Tkachenko, and GXAce on YouTube. The problem I have is that searching for “Urban” photographers brings up street stuff, “Architectural” ends up with folks who take pictures of whole buildings, “industrial” seems to lead to people who take photos for corporate websites, or urbexers (though some of those are verging on what I’m after). Constructed landscapes, textures, geometric shapes, and the juxtaposition of human artifice and nature, that’s my bag.

Is there a term or genre that would connect all this? Or am I just going to have to keep finding new artists one at a time?

Ta!
