This mural covers nearly a city block. It is signage promoting one of the city’s clubs along Queen Street. Using a 24mm lens, I was able to stretch the subject to stress the sweep of its incongruous lips, teeth, and the rays that flow out of it on both sides. I waited for a sole pedestrian to enter the frame, which gives the image its sense of scale incongruity. The sign itself is incongruous as well – there are no teeth, for example, on the bottom. But there are 30 of them on top, some featuring light fixtures and windows. I thank the delightful pbase photographer Jude Marion, (judespics) who spent an afternoon shooting with me in Toronto, and took me to Queen Street where I photographed this amazing sign.
