The Kissing Number [Without Links]

Karen Sherman
The image shows a layered series of photographs taken from a similar perspective. It is the same view of photographs of the Shoshone/Idaho Mountains, taken over a period of multiple days with the available light being different every time. The general blue-ish hue is from a couple of digital photographs that were taken in the early morning. The photos are also layered onto a photoshop background that is orange-red, a hue taken from one of the other in processed digital photographs. A sliver of that color is seen on the left side of the photograph. It is an exposure of the background layer of a complex image. The images are not aligned perfectly, causing the overall lines in the image to appear blurred or unsure. The layering refers to the “rolodex” of light states in the writer’s memory of the place (mentioned in the writing). The title points to landscape photography’s role in Manifest Destiny (such as the photographs of Carlton Watkins).
