An enlargement of a Polaroid transfer from 2004. Part of a series titled “The Closet” where I used macro photography to document items in my grandmother’s closet.

I was able to go into this former home just hours before the tear down process began. Two months later, all that’s left is a pile of rubble.
I search out lonely locations, looking for the evidence of human existence. To see the entire set, click here.
Dixie Brewing Company in New Orleans
Tuesday, May 5th, 2009
I recently visited New Orleans. My friend was apartment hunting for his move next month and I wanted to explore the city. Fellow artist James Mazza joined me on the trip. We happened upon the abandonded Dixie Brewing Company.
According to the internet, “In 2005, the Dixie Brewery was severely damaged when New Orleans was flooded during Hurricane Katrina. After the area was dewatered the brewery complex was looted with much of the equipment stolen. The site of the brewery is currently slated to become part of the planned LSU/VA hospital complex. Planners of the complex have pledged not to demolish the building as it is architecturally and historically significant.”
