Jude’s next series of photographs, \u003ci\u003eOther Nature\u003c\/i\u003e, adds a more intimate, diaristic strain to this line of inquiry, combining two separate sets of his own 4 x 5 color pictures (made between 2001 and 2008) to create a subtle and uncanny investigation of the “slippery threshold of narrative” in still images. Drawing on the concerns of the New Topographics photographers, Jude’s depictions of anonymous motel rooms and the stranger regions of the American landscape could, on first glance, be taken for an ecological critique. But as the exterior and interior details of these environments (floral patterns, wood grain, sunlight) begin to activate, interrupt and inform each other, the book shifts into a more abstract, subjective register, provoking reflections on photography, the visible world and things hovering just outside our physical perception.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Ice Plant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50820565532729,"sku":"1-0191","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/9878\/5849\/files\/OtherNatureRonJudeIMG_8786.jpg?v=1792185345","url":"https:\/\/www.realmbooks.co\/products\/other-nature-by-ron-jude","provider":"Realm Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
