In this day and (information) age some visual work stands for itself and readily describes itself. In the case of Rob's pdf of assemblages with intensified contrast and color obviously does not attempt to achieve news journalism. It does come across as personal editorial journaling. I don't think words are required for contemporary viewers. Surely we have come far enough to distiguish this work as what it is - articulate, editorial, art photography.
