I've been doing this photography gig for over a year now and it's apparantly serving the great purpose of having me revisit pivitol moments of my life. Seems every assignment takes me on a tour of a part of the city I have some sort of history in or a specificially direct connection to. In some cases a big moment happened close to where I'm assigned to shoot. Case in point, the photo above is one which sparks a great memory from when I was performing in my early twenties. After this poetry and music show held in an unconventional space in the city we were invited to have dinner at Cafeteria. It was the first time I can remember sharing food with people I wasn't friend or family with. This act alone definitely had a positive affect on me as a young person and the experience of community would be a precursuor of events to come as ultimately I'd become a connector of people, enjoying curation of both public and private gatherings feeding people.
