Editor: So this is Lawrence McFarland's "Untitled (marsh)," a gelatin silver print. It feels both bleak and beautiful, like a landscape holding its breath before a storm. What do you see in this piece? Curator: Ah, yes! It whispers of quiet observation, doesn’t it? The silver gelatin process gives it a tactile depth, pulling you into that brooding sky. For me, it’s a study in liminal spaces, the edge between land and sky, darkness and light. Editor: Liminal spaces? Curator: Transitional, on the threshold. Notice how the horizon line nearly bisects the image, dividing the tangible earth from the ethereal heavens. Do you feel a sense of anticipation, a waiting for something to shift? Editor: Absolutely! It makes me think about how much we project onto landscapes, these silent witnesses. Thanks, I'm starting to feel it now. Curator: Precisely! We bring ourselves to these spaces, and photography captures that exchange. Food for thought, eh?
