chair series
Friday, March 11th, 2005


every year, snow geese migrate through utah. specifically, they choose to migrate through delta, utah. this sunday, my parents and i drove down to delta to see what we could see. the snow goose festival was not going on because it was a sunday, but the geese didn’t care and hung out at the reservoir before heading out to get some food when we got to see, and HEAR, them fly away.





the reservoir where the geese hang out is small, with a few vacation homes around its perimeter. some smaller than their garages:

and as my mom said, “you can just do whatever you want down here”.



i have been working on a series of chairs for a while now. still working on it and still enjoying it. here is a raw snippet. this is not a finished image. this is a scan of a negative and that is it. i wanted to be able to print at least a contact sheet last night, but the film dryer at the lab was down and air-drying takes a long time so i didn’t get to hit an enlarger.
anyway, my fascination with chairs may be largely due to the fact that i rarely sit in them: i tend to sit on the floor. so to me, chairs are there to be looked at.
