There’s an apartment complex across the alley from my studio and I often wonder about who lives there and what’s going on in the building. Not knowing a single person that lives there but occasionally catching a glimpse of things happening, it leaves it up to my imagination to fill in the gaps.
I’ve often thought it would be a good idea to attempt a photo project constrained to one particular building or town. I’m a firm believer that good images or stories can be made most anywhere, so forcing yourself to pull them from within your immediate environment can be a motivating challenge when it comes to creating art. Next year, I hope to explore one of these potential project ideas.
