Thoughts

• "I was interested in analyzing how the visual experience of the 'real' is often second hand. TV, Internet, advertising and nearly all media provide us with the access to 'frozen,' stored, and re-presented images. It seems that first hand experiences are not needed to know something, someone or some place anymore." -Manuel Vazquez
