What is so spectacular about fog invading the woods, about a building that is almost as blurred as the foliage, or about a silhouette that disappears in the darkness ? Freezing these moments on paper makes Vanishing Points not so much a book of reproduced images but a collection of unique impressions. In fact, rather than just presenting a simple image Suzanne Burner questions the materiality of the image. She is showing how the imaginary can supplant the material.
