Escapism is a piece created in downtown Chicago, it was carefully color graded and the text was painted onto the photo on PS in post processing. The concept of the piece was photographing a stop on the CTA that I often got off at to pick up drugs while I was struggling with addiction. Since getting sober, I have a special place for this piece because to me it was very much an act of vulnerability when I made it and released, even though, until now, the story behind the photo had never been told.
