Catalogue Note
“Sometimes I mistake lyrics for my true feelings. I get so wrapped up in the band and seduced by music. There’s this euphoria. That’s the best, when you’re at a show and you know all the words and you’re singing along, screaming the lyrics, at the top of your lungs. When the loud music is completely disorienting and the crowd is jumping around you. Being pushed and pulled in the heart of the audience. Losing your mind in the moment and everyone bathed in the colored stage light. It doesn’t get better than that. The most beautiful sensation is closing your eyes and dancing. That’s what I want my photos to feel like.” Ryan McGinley, 2012
