Nocturne 2, Chicago at Night

Nocturne 2, Chicago at Night

I started to take photographs at night when I stopped driving everywhere. Biking in Chicago at night gives you access to places that you might not use when moving through the city at certain times of day. Each of the scenes in the Nocturne series, like the photograph Nocturne 2 show here, take the emptiness of public spaces as their subject. Each photograph almost appears to be a stage set, a performance about to begin.
