"As the days progress, entries on travel and photos of celebrities ... fade away, text gets denser and images of natural disasters emerge. So does an appreciation for what the pandemic cannot change: the wildlife that flourishes outside Horn's upstate studio, or the cheery lights on a majestic skyscraper at night. Together, the images speak to how we acclimatize over time.... But Horn's LOG is also a record of how we can try to survive in times of change: we watch Audrey Hepburn movies, we photograph the wildlife and sometimes we look up at the buildings and notice how strange it is that the lights are still on."
-Adriane Quinlan, T: The New York Times Style Magazine
"The third era defined by both paralysis and hope is upon us now. It is the recognition that, facing a grim future, hope itself can be an almost paralyzing, burdensome responsibility - that with Joe Biden's swearing-in, those Americans hoping for better can no longer simply hope for it but have to work for it, have to overcome paralysis and begin to address the colossal responsibilities now foisted on us. All of this is the locomotive that powers Horn's unnerving drawing. It is a flag for a new America." - Jerry Saltz, Vulture
