Untitled (San Lorenzo, New Mexico)
A metaphor for the conflict between rationality and emotion; betweeen Apollo and Dionysus; between the empirical and the supernatural; between stasis and revolution...

our motto and mission is to

tickle the idiot
rapture the faithful
pity all the ignorant and hateful

illuminate the enlightened
confound the intellectual
with life distilled flood memory's temple

New Work, July 2011

This is a close-up, triple (at least) exposure still-life of some objects I found in Rogers Park, Chicago, in my daylight studio. They were made using a cheap pinhole disc (replacing the multiple-thousand dollar glass lens produced in the 1980's or 1990's)on a silver-gelatine-consuming, shadow-analogue-recording dark-box once considered a standard in the professional photography industry (i.e. a film camera), way back in the end decade-and-a-half of the last century.
