Richard Mosse's Infra offers a radical rethinking of how to depict a conflict as complex as the ongoing war in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Shot on Aerochrome, a discontinued false-color reversal infrared film originally produced for surveillance purposes for the U.S. military, the film's sensitivity to color sets the landscape against a bed of violently fuchsia-tinged pinks. Infra has been said to have initiated a dialogue with photography that begins as a stimulating manifestation, but ends hauntingly for the beautifully colored land that has been drenched by unspeakable tragedy.
