This exhibition is about consumption and growing up in the seven years from 19
to 26 where nothing really extraordinary happens. In the above scene Big serenades
Carrie with Sinatra’s It Was a Very Good Year, singing the first verse set at age 17; it
was a very good year for small town girls, or so I’ve heard. Unfortunately time is the
meta-subject of photography, so I made gnarled candle holders that I would actually
display in my home. I hesitate to describe myself as an artist, because lately it feels
more like a compulsion than a career. When I was 19 I dated a 26 year old, for several
years actually, and I still find that relationship confusing. Now I am 26 and I drink lots of
wine, though lately I’ve been on a martini kick. I am constantly short on money and
have never felt more alone. When Big reaches the end of the verse, Carrie’s voiceover
describes the scene as perfect: “it felt like I was in heaven.”
