Photographer and filmmaker, Rita Leistner, blends fine art with documentary in her intensely lit, unstaged, metaphorically-inspired environmental portraits of the tree planters reforesting the cut blocks devastated by commercial logging.

Uncanny use of light
An innate sense of composition
Feeling not with the heart or head — but with the spine
The power of artificial lighting
