In the midst of this otherwise rugged and unforgiving landscape lie pockets of surprising softness: Dunes. These lie baking in the blistering sun for the most part\, but in the glancing light of sunrise and sunset\, they take on an unexpected voluptuousness and sensuality. Their strong forms and many moods\, in my view\, are rendered more distinctly and powerfully with my chosen “instrument”: Black-and-white. \nI usually approach the landscape with patience\, and introspection\, but capturing the fleeting instants created by the moving light on the dunes requires working as quickly as I can with a 4×5 camera and a tripod. I have been fortunate enough to have been rewarded generously. I believe that the forms and textures in nature resonate strongly with our most basic natures\, demonstrating a kinship that we often overlook in our modern existence. I offer them in this spirit.” \nDoremus Scudder began photographing seriously in his early twenties\, eventually stepping up to\, and mastering the techniques of\, the view camera. He now works exclusively in black-and-white\, using large-format cameras and film\, and crafts silver-gelatin prints in the darkroom. Nothing is done using digital technology. \nWithin this medium\, he uses varied subject matter\, careful organization\, and a broad and expressive palette of tonalities to create images of strong form and character. For Doremus\, the \nfunction of art is to enrich and uplift the human spirit through excellence and beauty: it is to this end that he strives. The photographs themselves are their own best description\, expressing their wordless world eloquently in the language of light. \nDoremus Scudder’s work is exhibited widely and represented in numerous galleries and private collections throughout the United States and Europe.
