Virgin River Tapestry
Artwork ID # 2306-36727-16
Zion Canyon breezes stir branches, while the persistent flow of river currents swirls about the rocky shoreline, painting the sky and towering canyon walls vibrant color reflections across the waters surface.
These forms and colors may seem to have been captured in a quickly passing moment, but are in fact visual evidence of how the slow passage of time reshapes and softens colors during a long time exposure of slow speed analog film.
Nearly all of our photographic visual record of the 20th century has been reflected back to us , not in digital media, but through captures created on analog film. A medium which imparts its own peculiar aesthetic nuances to the mirror images we now view representing the 20th century.
