Hoar Frost No. 2, Longmont, CO 2026 by Dustin Randall Keirns

Made in Longmont, this image sits at the edge of cultivated land where human presence is clearly inscribed. The fence quietly asserts the enduring tension between land, control, and belonging. Unlike the public landscapes of Rocky Mountain National Park, this place carries a different relationship between people and land. One defined by restriction rather than invitation. The hoar frost shows the effects that nature has upon the land regardless of ownership.
