Description
A young boy in dark clothing sits on a small chair beside a white chicken, both creatures turned slightly toward each other in an unexpectedly companionable pose. Shot in black and white with rich tonal gradations, the photograph captures an oddly tender moment between child and animal, rendered with the formal stillness of vintage documentary photography. Precision-cut from thick, satin-finish paperboard and made to order, in 500 or 1,000 pieces. An afternoon spent building an independent artist's work.
