The story behind the picture:
Having lived most of my life in the Midwest, I’m kind of a connoisseur of the unpopulated landscape. But I often feel loneliest when I’m in New York City. While visiting there in 2018 for my book, “I Know How Furiously Your Heart is Beating,” I saw a view out the window of my Airbnb that hit the kind of melancholic chord I associate with the city. I almost felt like a character in an Edward Hopper painting.
I photographed this view with an 8×10 view camera – the same type of camera with which I’ve made my work in middle America. An important element of this picture is the inclusion of the dark edge of my window frame. This isn’t a picture of New York City, this is a picture of someone at a window looking at New York City.
