Nathan Coe

The Great Divide

2016

With his passion for formal technique and composition, internationally renowned photographer Nathan Coe’s works exude a deep reverence for the classics with a uniquely modern twist. Known for his lush, evocative, cinematic beach landscapes, in recent years Coe has introduced the unexpected in the form of subtle human intervention. For Coe, the inclusion of the nude female figure—often shown with her back to the camera as though she is blissfully unaware of the artist’s presence—represents the innate human connection to nature in its purest form.
