In Leong’s project Horizons, she
traveled the world making pictures of different landscapes. All of her pictures
are taken horizontally and the main focus in the picture is the horizon line.
The landscapes depicted in this project as an accumulation of organic and
inorganic processes, which are linked to conceptions of human presence in the
natural world.
The photographs in Horizons challenge the typical one-point
perspective that we are generally used to seeing. This brings more attention to other aspects
of the picture. Some of these aspects
include composition, as well as variety.
Leong’s approach to making Horizons is very interesting. He took
one of the most cliché subjects to take pictures of and still found a way to
make it interesting. I like how she
played with the different perspectives in the composition to draw your eyes
across the landscape. All of her
pictures make you want to continuously look at them and find everything in it.
