Movers, New York City, New York 2010

I use the open door of a moving truck as the stage for the story here. The man lifting a carton within the truck is abstracted in silhouette. He is framed by a tree at left, and by the repeating rhythms of the vertical lines on the inside of the open door. I abstract the name of the movers by showing only a part of the truck at right, but the remaining star spangled decoration suggests a patriotic motif. The final touch is the carton already resting on the ground. We can’t tell if it is arriving or leaving, but we do know what is probably being moved here.

Thank you, Vera, for relating to this image, and for the holiday wishes. And yes, we hope to have a enjoyable and productive cruise later this month along the coast of Brazil and through the Caribbean. I hope to make a good number of useful images. As for Rio, we have been there before, and had no difficulties. We stick close to our tours in such places to avoid getting into any difficulties.
