Bow-Tie Screwhead
2003

A framed photograph of a symmetrical composition of desert scenery with large boulders and sparse vegetation under a clear blue sky. The central feature is a mirrored image of rock formations, creating a Rorschach test-like effect. There are signatures and edition numbers on the white border of the print.
