Description: "This photograph is representative of my ongoing documentation of the urban landscape that has been the backdrop to much of my life. Where some might see blight or urban decay, I have often found things worthy of capture and preservation, things full of history, complexity, and beauty. I have found a subversive kind of pleasure, taking the more hostile elements of our city, barbed wire for example and transforming them into something that feels different, softer, and less menacing."
