Giuseppe Ungaretti

The mirage... Then, from far, far down - from the staircase of contaminated layers of compact light, near the ground struck by an intense heat full of tormented anger, and while the mirage's rarefied light rebounded, run through with denser layers - in the heart of those superimposed dazzlements, a sharp, suspended light chose to show an overturned semblance of happy dwellings, surrounded by gardens reflected in a lake of eager, gushing water, and at the top, under a clump of branching palm trees, bunches of yellow dates... The most attractive of illusions and the cruelest of disappointments.

-Giuseppe Ungaretti

book

http://jackmcgilvray.com/jack_mcgilvray/Photo/Pages/Landscape_Without.html

i ordered some pocket sized books containing the images i have been making the last 6 months
many of which i posted on the blog. there are 50 images included. it turned out great and everyone loved it! 

here is the intro of sorts that is printed on the first page:

Landscape Without

There is a drain without water
There is a room without a man
There is a shallow dirty puddle
And a pile of soggy wood
I found myself reaching out 
Empty spaces to dwell in for a moment
Abandoned objects, feigning replacements
I found myself immobilized 
Remaining without
