Recent studies: a figure reaching into a hole in the ground, a figure getting a haircut (head, barber cape, chair, mirror), an apple on a laptop, a hummingbird plunging its head into a flower, a couple from an amateur porno sixty-nining (searched “passionate”), used plates and silverware, Rosie sleeping, a network of cameras facing an interviewee, a staircase to a front door through a car window, a child standing on a chair in a bathroom (from Mom's photo archive).
Assembling these subjects like tesserae to come back to content, been a bit bogged down by formal whims. And together they are suggesting something about solitude, yes, but also about: stripping away, rawness, tension between being seen and discarded, anticipation, achieving, falling short, manifesting, ignoring, growth stunted and catalyzed, resting for a minute, resting forever, merging and severing.
