Sze Tsung Leong - Keeping His Eye on the Horizon (Line) by Philip Gefter

"When I'm really familiar with a place, it is more difficult to visualize it," he said, citing New York, his home, as an example.

"But being confronted with a new situation, I find that I'm more aware of things visually."

He traveled to Amman because he hoped the uniform construction of its buildings might cast an even pattern and tone across the surrounding hills, which would offer him distant vantage points.

And the Roman ruins there attracted him as a reminder of the reach of the Roman Empire across national borders.
