Publix Hotel
I have been fortunate to be one of the few people allowed access into the abandoned Publix Hotel. The six-story Publix Hotel is a run down building located in Seattle’s international district. It was officially closed in August, 2003 due to the overwhelming costs of repairs to the decaying structure. Very little has changed inside the structure since the tenant evictions 8 years ago.
The Wire
I am fascinated with urban payphones and have started capturing photos of them around the city. Many of the phones have been removed since I started the series two years ago. I will have several more images from the series posted soon.
I have been fascinated with photography ever since I received my first 35mm film camera when I was sixteen. From the beginning I enjoyed seeing worlds invisible to the naked eye, the ability to manipulate time & the opportunity to share unique places and perspectives. Photography allows me to lose myself in the colors, shapes, and patterns of the world around me.
