Title: Perfectible Worlds
Description: Perfectible Worlds  is a group of 60 color photographs of people with obsessions. Begun soon after 9/11, the series portrays people transported into worlds and activities over which they have near-total control. The photographs, made from medium format negatives, are all environmental portraits, and range from people who make extravagant miniature worlds, to others who have extraordinary collections or who immerse themselves in unusual pursuits. The juxtaposition of scale in a number of the photographs makes them surprising and surreal. Each photograph is the discovery of a particular world an individual has found or created for himself: a private world that few are privileged to see.
