Side Project: Hometown Parallelograms
Second Project: Charlotte on Elm Street
First Project: Reenactors of the Canfield Fair
I photographed Civil War reenactors as a way of exploring the role of subject self-presentation in portraiture. These men are extremely knowledgeable about the roles they play. In posing for the camera, they offered me an odd mixture of themselves and the anachronistic image they seek to (re)construct.

Nicholas Haggard







Quiet, sensual, simple, soft. Nicholas Haggard, of the Tinker Street Collective, makes photographs that are lighter than air. So much of this reminds me of what's been coming out of senior studio at Oberlin the last few years.
