Gelatin Silver Print, Flush Mounted On Boardcm 48,3 X 48,3 Original Provenance: Purchased At Pillips De Pury & Company, New Yorklynn Davis Highlights Her Ability To Transform The Landscape Into An Almost Mystical Experience. The Quote "the World Does Not Look Like My Pictures" Suggests a Distance Between Reality And Its Artistic Interpretation, As If Her Images Were a Sort Of Visual Meditation Rather Than Simple Documentationthe Influence Of Berenice Abbott Is Probably Reflected in The Compositional Precision And Attention To Light, But Davis Develops a Personal Language That Transcends Simple Representation, Leading To a Reflection On The Grandeur Of Nature And The Role Of Man in Front Of It. The Use Of Black And White Helps To Create a Sense Of Timelessness And Abstraction, Distancing Her Images From Reportage And Bringing Them Closer To a Contemplative And Symbolic Dimension
