USA. Alaska 2/3. Boundaries and beyond
Workshops , United States, Anchorage, 22 August 2010
The desire to capture the reality with the eye, the most perfect camera that exists in nature, actually leads to a frustrating realization that every moment is a moment of light unique and fatal, yes repeatable but so only.
Stop the horizon and turn it mathematically and technically in a number of pixels or in the chemistry of acids for the purists of the photographic tradition, is a source of continuing tension in owning the poignant beauty inherent in the landscape of Alaska.
The boundaries are always ready to cause new internal challenges and trace, or better, capture forms, with the continuous desire to confirm for themselves the desire to achieve. But once you've reached them escape and reappear others: the drama of travel in Alaska is certainly more palpable (and literature on these sites gives evidence).
The horizons of Alexander Supertramp (Into the Wild) or Timothy Treadwell (Grizzly Man) deceive with gentleness and silence to a boundless freedom and lead to a strong desire to recapture the lost harmony and rules of nature.
