Case Studies

I printed directly onto the edges of cards, thousands of cards per image. Each edge is, in effect, a photograph just a few pixels wide. My source images come from 1970s-era field guides and nature magazines, where the job of the photo was just to stand for the thing described. Cactus; mountain; sunset at the beach.
