On their first trip to the region, they passed a tourist attraction called “Trees of Mystery”. The entrance featured a 50 foot effigy of an American folklore lumberjack, Paul Bunyan , and a large souvenir store with a neon sign that read, “Live Burls”.

Stankowski was a dedicated proponent of the unity of free and applied art. For the field of commercial art, this approach logically entails the most demanding of artistic expectations.

He considers how a photographer’s response to landscape is subjective, full of meaning that’s coloured by their own psyches, foibles, fears, and hopes.

The montages created meaningful disorder, exposing the truth by disorganising―a process Didi-Huberman calls a “dialectic of the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003emonteur\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.” These works are examples of “the eyes of history”―when seeing may simultaneously deepen and critique historical knowledge.
