Neil Drabble
Tree Tops Tall
HC, 29x 38 cm., 44 pp.
Steidl Mack 2003
For three years Neil Drabble made pictures of the tops of trees wherever he was around the world. It is a collection determined not by the type or site of the trees but instead by the fact that the tree tops against a bright sky are a motif for a state of mind, a formal expression of the self. Each view is made from the stand-point of a child, looking upwards with awe at the wonder of the natural world.
