All subjects sat for one hour, peering into a mirror mounted on the front of the camera, often in a gallery in public. SITTING combines portraiture, collaboration, endurance, performance and meditation. The resulting images are a distillation of the sitter’s image.

All images are 20”x 24” contract printed from paper negatives.
