post-industrial portraits

About this series:

Surrealism from my past merges through the tenuous present, and into the post-industrial future of a cyberpunk novel. In synthesis, they foreshadow something not yet real, something that might be... or not. The models lure you in... to what? A compilation of mostly recent work... then, re-arranged into something bigger than the sum of the original concepts.

Things seldom makes sense in this imaginary world. Let go, and it will come. Know by not knowing. Go into the mystery, into the alienation, into the sensation, into the rebellion. Use the darkness to find light.

Technical details: Shot almost entirely with a Leica M6 TTL and a 50mm Summilux on Tri-X and Neopan 1600. Everything was done on location, in five states, and by available light. Some of the models are experienced and nationally known, others had never done a serious shoot before.
