View From the Mayor's Window
by Martha Gannon
Metallic prints, stainless steel, Plexiglas, 2005
This work was photographed in a 10-by-10 foot area outside the home office of David Lanman (then mayor of Marfa, Texas) and is about seeing the details in our daily life. Here, the otherwise invisible lives are exaggerated, and the ordinary view shifts into non-distinction.
