'It has to do with experiencing intimacy on a certain scale, like in a movie theater or on a packed train.'
A recent trip to New York’s Museum of Modern Art is partly to thank for John Edmonds’s new series of photographs. Well, not the actual museum, although the “Constantin Brancusi Sculpture” show did prompt a personal meditation on the nature of authenticity and appropriation. It was a chance encounter with a street vendor named Ali, who sets up shop every day, just outside, with his selection of African arts.
Shot in the intimacy of the 29-year-old New Yorker’s Brooklyn studio and home, the subjects are friends and acquaintances that Edmonds describes as “stunning,” “compelling,” and “statuesque.” In his photographs—some of which are currently on view at the, some of which arrive this June at Edmonds’s solo show at Company Gallery—they sidle mesmeric cultural objects: Kuba clothes, Chokwe masks, and various decorative talismans.
