SCRAP OPERA SERIES

This series of photographs depicts a couple of squatters in a ruined Victorian mansion. An open-air kitchen is a stage for obscure performance: pregnant woman with horns; man in a dirty morning robe and sleeping mask; old chicken bones garnishing a fine table setting. Bulgarian pagan tradition flavors this pre-apocalyptic American opera. Are these people living out a cruel fantasy with other people’s garbage? Are we witnessing choice or necessity?
