Artist Statement
I took this photo trying to give it a feeling. I see what is usually a smile is no more. That look in his eyes is only enhanced by the rounded glasses. The feeling I get from the plastic draped over him is the thin barrier between keeping his distance and letting people in, but he stays behind the thin barrier to stop most from getting too close. The graffiti in the background just looks cool. But why does he shut people out? Why won’t he let people in? Why does he wear glasses when he doesn’t need them?
