About the Item

This vintage print is signed in pencil on the front of the mount with a title and negative number in pencil on the back of the mount. What is likely Wynn Bullock's most renowned negative-reversal, the Tree Trunk from 1971 represents the artist’s attempt to communicate the energy which permeates all matter. The reversals by Bullock bring life out of inanimate objects like this dead cypress—light and energy burst from every crevice like the glowing embers of a fire.
