Saltern Study
Saltern Study is a collection of cubist wallpapers paying homage to an incredible Canadian photographer and one of my favourite images Apple used marketing the iPad Pro in 2016.
When Apple introduced the 9.7-inch iPad Pro on March 21, 2016, it featured two photographs by Canadian Photographer David Burdeny, specifically Saltern Study 06 & Saltern Study 10. These images were never included on the device but were images Apple used as part of their keynote to market the newest iPad Pro.
Taken above the Great Salt Lake in Utah in 2015, these vibrant and minimalist aerial photographs have been some of my favourite pictures to gaze upon. There is a quality that I am drawn to in these images, how the landscapes look both foreign and manufactured or how roads and channels blur into gradients into mountains far off in the distance. At first glance, I am left wondering if I'm looking at a painting or a photograph. These images also evoke comparisons to the prairie fields of Montana or Alberta, which stretch endlessly into the horizon before brushing up against the Rocky Mountains. However, since I'm not about to drop $18,000 on one of these prints, I strived to create a collection of wallpapers inspired by David Burdeny's work.
Three new cubist wallpapers inspired by David Burdeny’s Saltern Study.
Today I am introducing three new wallpapers; a minimalist, cubist wallpaper collection for your iPhone, Mac, and iPad inspired by the Saltern Study collection. Enjoy.
