description

Comet Hale Bopp is among Folberg’s compelling night images of the land and sky of Israel and the Sinai offered to the viewer as mystical points of entry and departure. Folberg sets an ancient land resonant with meaning—and the cradle to three major world religions—against the awesome and eternal spectacle of the night sky. Folberg's night landscapes carry an aura that is both earthly and divine, emphasizing the singular and poignant presence of objects against the backdrop of the infinite. His photographs describe places where the spiritual is at once near, imprinted in the forms of the arid landscapes, and far away in the dark, starlit recesses of space.
