Description

paper collage

28" x 22"

Fall 2004

I arrived at the title for this piece of artwork when I imagined what explorers might have named this rock formation and used the landmark to navigate their way home.

One of my purest compositions, this work was a departure from my early use of photographs in their original context and a milestone in the creation of my picture fragments style.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some materials used in this work were derived from various magazine sources, perhaps including, but not exclusive to; National Geographic, National Geographic Travel, Architectural Digest, Outside, Smithsonian, In Style, Playboy, Transworld, Reader's Digest, Sailing, Sports Illustrated, Field & Stream, Marvel Comics, DC Comics, Skateboarder, American Hunter, and American Rifleman.

I have altered, rearranged, and transformed the fragments of photographs and advertisements published in these magazines in a way inconsistent with their original context, focus, and arrangement, so that any derivative use qualifies as
de minimus, and therefore does not infringe on any copyright. Additionally, some elements may have been appropriated and recontextualized, qualifying as fair use.
