The aluminum plates are themselves relics, layered pentimenti of past work, paintings in which other photographic images have been subsumed. Images from the Borderlands were gathered from extensive wandering in New Mexico, Chihuahua, Arizona, and Sonora. These beautifully executed silver prints are mounted on watercolor paper. Desert Wilderness of Southwestern Arizona were made with a large format view camera during solitary desert walks. Mr. Berman's superbly rendered editions are limited to twelve prints of each image.
Constellations are acrylic and mixed media paintings on aluminum plates.
