In Sky (Residence) and Sky (Main Street) the upper sections of mid 19th century wood engravings are isolated and redrawn. The missing areas originally depicted specific locations - city streets and town views. Attention is shifted from those absent subjects, now indicated by the shapes of the negative spaces, to secondary areas of the compositions - the cloudy skies.
