Desert & Horizon

Split Horizon

No. 3 of 20 · free · 300 dpi

What you seeThe frame is cut down the middle. On the left a clay sky meets a sand plain low down, with half a bone sun sitting on it; on the right a peach sky meets an ochre plain higher up, and the other half of the sun is dark red.

What it meansTwo moments of the same horizon, printed side by side and slipped out of line, like two exposures that never matched. The sun is the one shape that crosses between them.

Where it worksMade for a small wall or a group of prints. It pairs well with Low Sun.
