Excerpts from Sze Tsung Leong and David Burdeny’s artistic statements
The following are selections from the artistic statements of Leong and Burdeny from exhibitions of each photographer’s work.
Leong, April 2008: “Horizons is an ongoing series of photographs, begun in 2001, that depict expansive but detailed views of a broad spectrum of environments throughout the world.”
Burdeny, January 2010: “Sacred and Secular is an ongoing series of photographs that depict urban edge conditions and built environments throughout the world.”
Leong, April 2008: “The images are photographed primarily with an 8-by-10-inch view camera. . . . Printed as analog chromogenic color prints, each image offers a finely grained density of visual information, rendered in the broad range of tonality made possible by the analog print.”
Burdeny, January 2010: “The images are photographed with an 8”x10” view camera and printed as chromogenic color prints. Each image offers a finely grained density of visual information, rendered in the broad range of tonality only made possible by the 8”x10” inch transparency.”
