On the Colorado Plateau of the Southwestern US, the surface of the land seems merely an arbitrary boundary - a truce line that our own habits of observation grasp to draw between two intermixing aspects deeply felt reality: 1) the experience of solidity, knowability, structure, and longevity; and 2) that which we poetically encounter as undulating, flowing, endless, and boundless. The borderline between what we call land and what we call sky is, in actuality, simply a classification of density, and here in the Southwest we see that both are realms clearly in motion, bubbling into, out of, and through each other. The land's surface is merely the tangible and visible imprint of an ever-complex mingling of process and form. The medium of stereo photography presents the unique character and feel of these captivating landscapes with high fidelity while also offering gallery viewers an opportunity to experience the dynamism and wonder of their own perception. 3D Glasses sent in by mail.
