New York City, as in other large cities like Los Angeles or Chicago, is a city of rooms, where many secret things occur clandestinely behind closed doors. Who knows what mysteries are even now unfolding inside the apartment in that very ordinary-looking building on the corner of 39th Street and Sixth Avenue, or even in the apartment right next door to it?
This series of photographs entitled “Rooms,” captures visits to rooms inside of places about which you may never have thought, or even if you’ve imagined what they’re like, you’ve probably never actually been there. The photographs capture a wide range of social and economic experiences in New York City, including: scenes at a garment-district sweatshop, a swingers sex club, the dressing-room in a stripper-club, a morgue in Harlem, New York City’s Office of the Mayor, the behind-the-scenes kitchen of a fancy-gourmet restaurant, super-elegant bathrooms and even a bowling alley in the basement of an art museum.
This piece includes a number of great color photographs, as well as a remarkable slide show of additional photographs.
