At the Mission Creek Preserve in California, abandoned stone huts merge into the desert landscape. The sun creates a geometry of stripes and lines, a play of light and shadows through empty windows and slatted roofs. The burst of yellow bloom offers a sharp counterpoint to the gray stone. The series Geometry speaks to a fascination with windows: looking into forbidden, secret, and private spaces. In this series, the borders between inside and out, dream and reality are porous and permeable.

In her nature photography, Briskin seeks light, lines, shadows, texture and reflections, and images that last only a breath.
