DescriptionImage of an abstracted square toy fence viewed from above in a horizonless field of green. Scratches and other marks betray evidence of repeated photography of an analog print. Images of pinholes echo actual pinholes along the edges of the print. A gap at the right top of the square leaves an evocative entry point at the top right corner of the composition. The print arrived with a vertical fold through the center.
