Contact Sheet #43 Some Other Realms : Chris Sullivan

Chri Sullivan, a self-proclaimed “language photographer,” finds humor and profundity in the signs and letters that surround us. He will be creating new “language photographs” made in Charleston to accompany his installation.

“I call my practice with the camera Language Photography because my nature to understand speech as a visual medium sees it that way; over the years I’ve noticed the pictures I am most attracted to happen when muttering occasions the moment of exposure – these scenes, from a camera guided as much by ear as eye strike me as a way to preserve both what I saw and what I thought.”
