Gallery 04 : Between Space and Thought

"Street life occupies another world, another realm of experience, night to our daytime, a furtive shadow city where different rules and ethics apply...." The work for this series is part of an ongoing exploration of ideas that include psychological states, masculinity, space, time and conversations with myself. I am particularly interested in examing how masculinity is defined by the spaces we inhabit, momentarily or otherwise. Lighting is used to highlight a space that may take on a different meaning or purpose once abandoned and darkened. *Tony Kushner in his introduction to The Waterfront Journals by David Wojnarowicz
