Camera
During the latter days of that long trip the camera ceased to be an intermediary lens that simply sensed and seized any view it pleased. Gradually it grew into an organizing tool choosing and composing, tidying and trimming, dividing, defining, refining shapes and fields, forms and lines, patterns and planes, whether rough, refined, fractal, frumpy, thick, thin, round, rectangular, rhomboid, rhombus, receding, reaching, choice, chance. The camera now devises visual dances, designs that dwell in graceful domains found in the four sides of the frame. Rhythmic arrangements eclipsing the frame’s simple squareness, growing wild, sometimes sublime, defying distance by grasping the universe beyond the peripheries of flat surfaces, Offering images of travelless travels extending beyond paper corners and gallery walls, unravelling from margins and right angles, untangling from the dictates and demands of left and right. The beauty of shapes. They first define, and then unwind. Carl Lindquist Carl Lindquist lives in India.
