Donald Whalen's "pretty legit" 2005 self portrait, documenting the mundane business of toll taking in a University parking ramp. A week after its production he fails his cinema course and drops out of school while the University continues to screen the work without proper permissions.

Donald is currently seeking employment to pay off his still-enormous debt to Academia and is not bitter so long as he can afford lots of delicious, numbing wine. He appreciates your melencholic company and reminds you, as always, that the system does not overlook anyone, and yet, it overlooks everyone.

  • Loved it. Seriously. I'm really into portraits of people, their jobs, how they do their jobs, etc. Studs Turkel kinda stuff.

    And you really captured it well. The mundane nature of it. How the job is so ridiculous on this basic level. That shot of the one car trying to get out of its space and the other backing up. Hilarious.

    Very well edited. One of the better and more innovative pieces I've seen in a while. GL

  • i really like this piece. i don't think it's right for current, cos the pace is so slow, but it's very well done....
