Description

Clift has spent much of his creative life in New Mexico, frequently working in national parks, creating personal, reflective, and quiet images such as Desert Form #1, New Mexico, of lyrical grace and formal invention. Employing an 8-by-10-inch view camera, Clift takes advantage of its detail-rich negatives, yielding the ethereal light, rugged texture, and otherworldly quality of this ancient wilderness.
