These two artists, David Prentice, and Hiroshi Sugimoto have a clear connection that can be linked through their work by the abstract approach to the landscapes. There is also the absence of man-made structures this, therefore, gives their work a lack of identity without the context of where the landscape is.

However, there is a strong contrast between the two artists. Prentice paints in a wide range and variety of colour. These colours are bright and portray the landscape and exciting and inviting, whereas Sugimoto uses more greyscale tones in his photographs and instead of colour, his focus is on the lighting, texture, and technique in his images.
