Up close, gas fields and factory farms are no oil paintings. But by taking a bird’s eye view, Mishka Henner’s satellite images make works of art from places where humans subjugate nature.

This is a view of Centerfire Feedyard in Kansas, where cattle are gathered to be fattened for market. Henner’s other large-scale prints of Google Earth satellite images include oil and gas fields – another industry that takes over the landscape so we can meet our seemingly insatiable demand to consume.

Henner’s previous work includes a book series that contains the whole solar system, in miniature.

You can see his Oil Fields and Feedlots series, along with his photographs of US military outposts, at the in London until 31 May.
