Geoff Green: One Block, Brooklyn
In the gutter
“The object is taken from the gutter, photographed, and printed. The final print is then taken to the street to absorb the impact of the original environment, its weather, foot, and vehicular traffic. Each print becomes a unique object.” Geoff Green showed me this ongoing project at a recent portfolio review. He slapped the large prints on the table and offered me a pair of gloves in case I wanted to avoid touching them (I declined to wear them). He leaves the prints taped down until they eventually get dragged down the street. “Unfortunately, I do need to keep an eye on things so they don’t get nicked.” Geoff Green
