PixelEx/Pixels at an Exhibition: Dada Left

As part of my Featured Photographer for March 2010, we’ve just posted more exclusive images at Pixels At An Exhibition. You can browse them all if you click here.

Deep Ellum is a strip of three, maybe four streets of bars, restaurants, clubs, tattoo parlors, art galleries, vintage stores, old warehouses and lofts. Baylor Hospital where Mickey Mantle died is a couple of blocks away. Most of the buildings are old — old for Dallas, anyway. Many of them surviving gentrification since the 1920’s.

Mockingbird Station

Toolbox: FocalLab, CameraBag

If you’ve taken the Blue Line or the Red Line south from Mockingbird Station, you know the big, long escalator down to the platform. Once you step on, there’s a long time to think about where you’re going, the train you’ll take. Three stories below, you step out on to the platform, only a short distance from where the twin tunnels engulf the yellow and white trains.

Louise

Toolbox: CameraBag, FocalLab

Louise stands in the middle of the terminal, facing the travelers and the Chili’s-To-Go. She stands near her accessories, displayed in a glittered case. Her clothes say tropical, or thrift store. Her glasses implore “hide me in in First Class.”

Dinner With My Dad

Toolbox: Vint B&W

I suppose I should probably get a model release for this image. I’m not worried about a lawsuit. I’m concerned about being grounded.
