A closer look at the work

A tall window opens onto a narrow street canyon between densely windowed buildings. Pale curtains frame the view, divided by a dark crossbar. Distance is soft and hazy while nearby fabric takes on violet and gold tones. The surrounding interior remains outside the crop.

View of Manhattan presents an outlook as a mediated experience. Glass, frame and curtains stand between eye and city, belonging to the photograph as fully as distant façades. Outside becomes an image within a room without becoming completely accessible. The work holds open a tension between the desire for overview and the limited proximity of one window.

Personal consultation

The work, the space, the presentation.

What interests you about this work? I take time for your questions, its origins and its place in a collection. Together, we explore differences between works and their relationship with space, light and architecture.

Size, selected materials and bespoke framing are carefully coordinated. The precise presentation develops through our conversation.

A photograph of the intended space can help us consider scale and placement.
