Vertiginous Matter: Jason Horowitz is an investigation of materialism, scale, and perception as shown through his lens and artistic process. Utilizing modern technology Horowitz’s images are both arresting in their scale and magnitude and yet intricate in their detail and delicacy. Horowitz’s images are an appeal to view, to examine, and to cast aside visual preconception and expectations.
