Using color film to photograph everyday American scenarios, this work explores a photograph’s ability to give meaning once the subject is cropped into a two-dimensional rectangle and mounted on a wall. Primarily, humor is extracted from the banal, and photography serves as a vehicle for delivering the comedy. These photographs were made in Howard Beach, Queens, a strange pocket of New York City.
