The images in this series are a subset of 1400+ images that were created over a four-year period (1999 - 2003) in My Place.
In the Fall of 1999, I discovered a large open area encompassed within brick walls three meters high in the city of Lexington, Kentucky. This place was often identified as an old, run-down deserted parking lot. I came to know it as a place of beauty, a whole other world. I found myself continually going back, through all seasons, photographing plants, objects, markings, shapes, and then self-portraits, soon realizing that as long as I was in Lexington, I would be photographing in what had now become "My Place." I did not know then that two years later it was to be torn down. During its demolition, I was determined to record as much of what was left of it, and surprisingly, the body of work grew more than expected.
