Acerca del libro
On the quiet side of South Padre Island, Texas, long boardwalks cross a saltwater marsh to tattered bird blinds on the edge of the Laguna Madre. From within the blinds, the wooden framework creates a matrix of strong vertical and horizontal lines that compartmentalize the landscape, while fabric diffuses the exterior light, leaving blocks of soft color. The random, weathered tears and resultant curves and frayed edges of the fabric add an organic effect and reframe one’s reading of the landscape in surprising ways. Swathes of fabric became enticing veils. A slit here seems sensuous, while a gash there appears ominous. The landscape is always present, but the interior, grid-like structures of the blinds fragment the world outside – creating a tension between what is constructed and what is natural. These photographs reflect on how our experience of nature is mediated by the forms and materials of human-made structures.
