Description
Large ceramic jugs crowd the foreground of this black and white photograph documenting a Prohibition-era police raid, their weathered surfaces suggesting illicit production and distribution of alcohol. Behind them, officers and confiscated bottles line a ornate bar counter in an interior space rendered in stark monochromatic tones that emphasize the gravity and chaos of law enforcement intervention. Crafted from bamboo and made to order, with a drilled hole so it hangs on the wall as easily as it works on the counter. A kitchen essential carrying an independent artist's work, not a blank block from the big-box aisle.
