This is the start of a sort of graphic novel called "The Case". The next six frames already exist and I will carry on with it till I get bored (or to the end) whichever is sooner.
This is one of many shots taken in Beverley Hills when I went to interview Charles Bragg in his Beverley Hills home / studio. It was a fun trip and I am grateful for the time he gave me that day.

I found this snail lying in the middle of the street, about to be stepped on. I picked it up and later used it in this photo, placing it on a life-sized doll in a side-view composition as it moved across her lips. It was shy for the first hour or so, barely reacting—but eventually, it behaved like a real model. After the shoot, I released it into a nearby park. Often a symbol of solitude, patience, and inner reflection, the snail reinforces the recurring theme of isolation and indulgence throughout my work.
