"Celebrating Nature"
By Richard Kraus View Biography
"Art is a way of saying what it means to be alive, and the most salient feature of existence is the unthinkable odds against it. For every way that there is of being here, there are an infinity of ways of not being here. Historical accident snuffs out whole universes with every clock tick. Statistics declare us ridiculous. Thermodynamics prohibits us. Life, by any reasonable nature, and my life - this, here, now - infinity more so. Art is a way of saying, in the face of all that impossibility, just how worth celebrating it is to be able to say anything at all."
- Richard Powers.
Technical:
This image was captured using a Pentax 6x7 camera with a 90mm lens on a tripod. The film was Kodak Vericolor II and there was no filtration used.
