The view is from inside a mini-van traveling one
of the rez roads (Pine Ridge, SD.) The
silhouette frame of the picture is of the window,
side panel, and quarter profile of my daughter
that make up four distinct lines in framing the
composition.
The frame angle suggests motion and the
temporary which expresses my own rez
experiences - allusive and transient. Within the
picture plane I placed the semi-blurred vista to
punctuate the ever changing, fleeting views that
occur.
This series was part of a traveling exhibition
2004-2005 titled On the Rez: Images from Pine
Ridge.
