From just the other side of a split rail fence, we look downhill to a pasture and then patchwork of fields in the valley below. A stream cuts across diagonally and passes under a covered bridge; a horse and foal stand in the foreground, with sheep…

This otherworldly woodcut is set in a real-world location: the Corona ash dump in Flushing Meadows, Queens. Originally the site of a proposed new industrial port in the early 20th century, its owner imported trainloads of ash from Manhattan to fill…

An ornate ceramic pot serves as the base for seven light pink flowers. With thick brown stems and plenty of green leaves, the flowers stand strong in the pot filled with dirt. The scene depicted on the pot brings culture and an ornate air to the…
