The "Near and Far" series border a greater view with two of the foot steps that had placed the viewer there. In many of the compositions it is as if the feet belong to the viewer and as you look down the earth opens up to simultaneously expose and remind you of where you are. There is a sense of the ground falling away beneath your feet creating a vertiginous exchange between the immediacy of the grounded individual feet and the vastness of the open landscape. The close and far, the interior and the exterior, the personal and the social, become mixed up. While you, the viewer, are working to make the shift between what is close and what is far away and what is close again, you get a visceral experience of the place between. Already the landscape is otherworldly enough, but the framing of the footsteps creates the sensation of a window or door into another world.
