Bow-Tie Rivet
2003

A symmetrical photograph of a desert landscape with large, rounded boulders flanking a central formation that resembles a heart shape when mirrored. Sparse vegetation, including a few trees and shrubs, dot the sandy ground under a clear blue sky. The image is framed with a white border, and there are artist's signatures and edition numbers at the bottom.
