The Italian Turin-based photographer, Paolo Pettigiani, has shot the pink and blue hued series using an infrared filter on his camera, creating a candy-colored photographic collection around the world: from New York City to the Dolomites, from Bolivia to the Maldives.
The photo series invites viewers into a world unseen, as eyes cannot fully see infrared light. Using a camera filter, bright whites visualize instead as turquoise, whereas darker tones in the frame materialize as cotton-candy pink. The metropolis and the nature landscapes are transformed into paradise parallel world and surreal urban visions.
