Figures in the Landscape

Thomas Comerford US, 2002, 12', 16 mm

Thomas Comerford’s Figures in the Landscape also refers to older media, in that it was shot with a pinhole camera, a form of camera obscura. The images show a sprawling Chicago suburb, while texts refer to earlier inhabitants — the Indians. The tentative, not completely sharp pinhole image combines with text to suggest that the landscapes shown, like all the landscapes we create, are themselves impermanent. (Fred Camper)
