I’m witnessing something on the edge of memory—something slipping away even as I try to hold onto it. Obscured by distortions that feel like remnants of a fading signal or a fractured recollection. There’s a quiet tension, a sense that time and technology have intervened, altering the image in ways that feel both intentional and accidental. I think about how we document the world, how nothing we capture is ever truly permanent, and how even our memories are subject to erosion. Gary Edward Blum

Manzanita With Thoughts On Color
40 editions
MANZANITA WITH THOUGHTS ON COLOR is a meditation on formal composition, balance, and duality. I took this photograph in the Emigrant Wilderness near the Sierra Foothills of California. Over the past 10 years, fires have increasingly devastated much of California’s forests. The B/W image and treatment are meant to trigger a kind of nostalgia or loss. While the colors, for me, look to a future of growth and new beginnings. Ultimately, I hesitate to put words or give meaning to the piece, I prefer the viewer bring their own interpretations.

The Start Of The Rocky Mountains With Two Lines

The Start Of The Rocky Mountains With Two Lines
Unique
THE START OF THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS WITH TWO LINES was taken while on a flight to Japan. As is common when seeing our planet from above, I was struck by the natural compositions of the earth. In this instance, I was particularly drawn to the shapes of the mountains in contrast to the man made line(road) running through them. I continued the idea of balance once I was back in the studio, by adding a second man made line mirroring the other. One that adds balance and a sense of wonder…although I’d prefer that the image be just a starting point for the viewer to find their own meaning. Artwork information: 44 X 60 Centimeters | JPEG | 300ppi. The collector will receive a signed print of the artwork.
