About the Item

"The Sun Beneath the Sky" is a series of Lumen prints featuring imagined landscapes highlighted by soft glowing light. In the images, seen and unseen suns illuminate transparent layers of mountains and volcanoes creating dreamlike and atmospheric places. "'The Sun Beneath the Sky' continues my use of cut paper, multiple exposures, and dodging and burning techniques to create invented photographic landscapes. First cut paper masks traced from the silhouettes of real mountain ranges are layered on top of silver gelatin paper. The paper is then exposed to sunlight at intervals and then processed to fix the image. The resulting photographs are pastel and ethereal. Through this series, I am reflecting upon the nature of light, atmosphere, geology and time." – Vanessa Marsh

These graceful leaning Monterey pines can be found all up and down the coast of northern California from San Francisco to Carmel and beyond.

These are the misty woods in the hills of Oakland, across the bay from San Francisco, shortly after sunrise. The California coastal redwood...
