As I prep for a trip back “home” to Chicago to actually “work” as a photographer for the first time, I find myself wondering how the past 3 years have affected my image making and what that will do to my interpretations of the city that was my original photographic muse? (kick ass run-on sentence) As such I seem to be resurrecting the very small collection of images that at the time felt like “bangers”. On 10/30/2006 I shot the Quadracci Pavillion by Santiago Calatrava at the Milwaukee Art Museum. You won’t find many spaces more conducive to great imagery than this one. There’s so much to play with you could shoot it every day for a year and still find something new every time. From the lines, to the light, to the reflections, to the living nature of the space, to the way it interacts with the weather and Lake Michigan…truly an exquisite creation and the images seem to be standing up nicely as well. Not sure I could best them today if I had to.
