His current work is intended to capture and take the viewer into a section of a scene that may seem ambiguous but familiar. He wants to make the viewer feel that he/she is part of the photograph. His photographs provide an opportunity for his viewers to wander through passages exploring their own whereabouts, and recalling moments of time and space that they may have been visited before. Vidler believes that the ability to examine components of a scene and look beyond what is obvious is a key factor in his photography career as well as a very important part of understanding our place in a larger landscape. He wants each individual to become as captivated by his photographs as he is with the process of capturing them.
