Louis Helbig is a Canadian artist specializing in aerial art photography. “Beautiful Destruction – Alberta Tar Sands Aerial Photographs,” uses a style, hovering between documentary, conceptual and abstract, to grapple with a controversial topic, not through editorializing but by providing viewers the space to reflect, imagine and think for themselves.
