In her exhibit 'Available light', Lena Henke utilizes the same use of scale and association that was discussed in Crimp Douglas's essay 'Pictures'. her opening piece for this exhibition is a bronze casting in the shape of the island of Manhattan which is intentionally made for the viewer to associate to the head of a horse. This piece utilizes a miniature skyline of the Manhattan cityscape which, as was described by Crimp, creates a sense of distance from the viewer that moving closer to could not change.
