Lisa K. Blatt

Lisa K. Blatt is a San Francisco-based photographer and video artist who works in extreme landscapes, often traveling alone or with scientists to hot and cold deserts. She has camped on a live volcano in Antarctica, joined a NASA science team in Chile’s Atacama Desert, and photographed White Sands, New Mexico, and Iceland.

In 2008 she received a grant from the National Science Foundation’s Antarctic Artists and Writers Program. Thermal imaging she did on that trip and on a 2012 scientific expedition to an Andean lake led to her heatscapes, photographs that record heat in the landscape. As she puts it, “Landscapes attract me with their light, beauty and simplicity. I stay for their darkness, complexity and secrets.”

Blatt’s work has been exhibited on six continents, including at the Shanghai Biennial; the Havana Biennial; Museo de Tigre, Argentina; the Reykjavik Museum of Photography (solo); Moderna Museet, Stockholm; the Freud Museum and Contemporary Art Platform, London; the Wexner Center for the Arts, Ohio; Mills College Art Museum, Oakland (solo); the Asian Art Museum, San Francisco; and the Phillips Collection, Washington, DC.

In 2012 Cindy Sherman chose her work for Smithsonian magazine’s “Shooting Stars” feature, and in 2018 Sandra S. Phillips, curator emerita of photography at SFMOMA, nominated her for the MACK First Book Award. Blatt helped lead more than 300 volunteers worldwide in creating the climate book The Carbon Almanac (Penguin, 2022). Her most recent solo exhibition at Bruno David Gallery, Red Sky in Morning, opened in September 2025.
