The Overlook

Thursday, March 06 - 2:30PM to 3:00PM
Tuscany 10
The photographs in The Overlook are made in the scenic viewpoints that dot the Oregon Coast, which attempt to flatten the land into a singular and definitive vista. Within these spaces, I photograph the landscape through a pair of binoculars, in an attempt to bring the sublime into clear view.
It is this same process that compromises the images from their outset, as the photographs collapse into peripheral abstractions where optical aberrations, pixelation, and fragments of landscape intermingle. In this moment, the images lose their function as photographs about landscape. Instead, they become photographs about looking.
