The low-key intensity of Dan's images sneaks up on you, and before you know it, fill you with astonishment! It's like being transported to another time, or perhaps outside of time? I feel the salty wind of the Dead Sea, the dry smell of a land without trees. The great spaces are so full of presence and so inexorably inescapable in this vast landscape, that it takes my breath away. The clear, great sky and its burning white sun.
Dan Isaac Wallin's images of the desert capture a landscape in constant but almost imperceptible flux, layer upon layer of that which is — and that which is not. Of what is left and what is missing. There is a resonance present in Wallin’s work. The patience, the responsiveness, the persistence.
Images of eroding rock formations and sand — sometimes with blackened holes, sometimes faded almost to the point of obliteration — like a fading whisper in the sand... as if what we see is visible only as long as we manage to keep our eyes open and memorize the shapes. Is it the wind that piles the dunes around the rocks until they are obscured and transformed, or is it time that gnaws on the mountains until they are hidden under their own deposits?
