Books
Along with handmade picture boxes, handmade case bound books have become the objects of my work. Of course there are prints, but books and boxes contain the prints, group the prints and the message that those prints carry. I have used these things to redirect attention to these as artifacts of the interaction. Once I shoot, on film of course, and process the images I curate them to place into a book. I then give the person who allowed me to take their portrait the book itself. This allows the person’s portrait to become a representation of themselves as people while the book becomes the form that is desired.
