Several photographs of natural granite captured in and around Muskoka, Ontario. Hood first focused on continuations within the images, aligning texture across several photographs, then cut away to reveal the geometric shapes seen here.
What sets this piece apart is the limited use of transparency and blending modes — images instead appear pushed side by side, relying entirely on shape, texture, and raw imagery. Nearly monochrome, but a gray found in nature.
Created to pair with Cut Trees.
Captured and Collaged 2025
Multiple photographs are layered and blended in Hood's signature collage process. After a shoot, Hood edits in batches, then hand-groups images for each new composition, sometimes returning to photographs years later. The process is entirely manual, using image layers, transparency, blending modes, and transform tools within Photoshop.
