Rounds Found Around
‘Rounds Found Around’ are images of discarded things I find on the street. This selection is categorized by their graphic nature and round shape. Included are rusted stove burners, weathered manhole covers, and crumpled pie pans. They are presented looking straight down, and I've paired them as having something in common with their partner; they make a stronger statement together than they would apart. Presented is the beauty in overlooked everyday objects, highlighting their textures, shapes, and the passage of time in urban environments.
Seeing Red
Red is my favorite color. The silver lining to the New York installing dedicated bus lanes on my neighborhood bus route (and taking away my beloved just-around-the-corner bus stop... and LOTS of parking spaces)... is that they painted these lanes red. Granted not as vibrant a red as shown in these images, but a pretty good proximity. Most of these pictures are of their process of painting these lanes, and I've included a few other ground surfaces that share the color red. These images are part of my broader ongoing series of things found on the ground.
