Reverón's images are thus distant not only because they tackle oceanic vastness or towering, mountainous volumes of shadows but because [. . .] they reliquish all desire to possess, to encompass. they are the ghosts that surround us, which we can seize by viewing them against the light--the trick of their shadows--in the ephemeral moment they present themselves.
