Observations
Across the sheet, realistic photographic rendering is combined with dreamlike, impossible juxtapositions: monumental clouds, floating spheres, vast curtains, circular apertures, boats, birds, and tiny isolated people. Muted blue-gray and sepia tones, dramatic natural light, expansive negative space, and carefully staged compositions give the scenes a cinematic, epic atmosphere.
