TRUE MAGICIANS, HOLY GHOSTS

 

 

 

 

"True Magicians, Holy Ghosts" my first solo show, opened in 2005 as part of the inaugural exhibition of John Connelly Presents’ ground floor gallery in Chelsea (NY). The title came from a fortune cookie given to me by gallerist and friend Daniel Reich that read "nature, time, and patience are the true magicians." And then of course I spent some time in a conservative family's haunted guest room in their basement.

 

The majority of images were made while traveling - away from home on an adventure - each trip a chapter of a visual diary. The trading card-like quality of the Polaroid image excites the 80's teenager and collector in me. The preciousness and intimate handheld scale is attractive to my inner hermit. This way of seeing and interacting with the world via my Polaroid camera continued for many years until I could no longer buy print film of an acceptable quality.
