Fence and Horno, 1996. Lincoln, New Mexico
On a return trip to the historic town of Lincoln, New Mexico, I noticed this very clean organization of shapes along the roadway. This print is a fairly straight interpretation of the subject. The entire scene was in full shade, without the presence of distracting shadows. I think the roundish forms of the kiln in the recessed area mysteriously counter the sharp, vibrant shapes of the white fence, creating a sense of visual irony. The negative was Kodak 4x5 Tri-X developed normally in Kodak HC-110 developer. As a result of my book projects of 1989 through 1991, I have gained a real appreciation for the historic areas of our American West and find myself returning to these places time and time again in an effort to "see" the hidden images that lie beneath the obvious surface.
