Following the study for making the letter into a landscape, I made contour cuts anywhere that the letter ye occurred. This resulted in two landscapes. One where the top of the letter is the high point of the landscape, such as illustrated in this image. In the other landscape, Letter as Landscape2, the bottom of the letter is the high point of the letter. Letter as Landscape2 was taken to Iran as a gift which formally mirrors the origins of the letter being sent from Iran to America many years ago.
