Her color and black-and-white photographs of ocean tides and patterns in sand and water are juxtaposed with other landscape scenes in which some small gesture of human activity or intervention is apparent--a hose floating on water, a pyramid in silhouette, tire marks, agricultural demarcations, white lines on a soccer field. These photographs, taken in locations around the world, are further augmented with delicate, complex paintings and drawings that underscore the subtlety of Schmidt's eye. As the book's title indicates, an expansive serenity permeates these works, which gently pursue and embrace the co-existence of the natural and the man-made.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bastienne Schmidt\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3868592601\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783868592603\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jovis Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 12.10w x 0.50d","brand":"Bastienne Schmidt","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43940879663359,"sku":"9783868592603","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_7ba894ec-bcac-475a-bc98-b79fc15999f8.jpg?v=1681449689","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bastienne-schmidt-bastienne-schmidt-9783868592603","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
