Earth Plane (2015) exemplifies Aitken’s immersive visual language, transforming the lightbox—a medium historically linked to advertising—into a luminous landscape of abstraction and reflection. The work fuses image and architecture to create a surface that feels both natural and artificial. Its radiant depth invites viewers to reconsider their relationship to the environment and the digital landscape.

Part of Aitken’s broader exploration of landscape and consciousness, Earth Plane positions geography as a metaphor for inner space. His use of light and layered pigment generates what he calls “living images”—works that shift and breathe with their surroundings. Drawing parallels to James Turrell and Dan Flavin, Aitken’s art remains distinctly of the digital era, addressing the rhythm of cities, the silence of deserts, and the fluidity of identity in constant motion.
