Musical instruments, fine piano keys, and entrance mats are covered in coarse, friction-heavy textures. These photographs explore tactile friction by replacing polished ivory, record grooves, and clean brass with industrial corundum wheels, heavy sandpaper, and soot-blackened exhaust pipes.
Will triumphant fanfares choke on heavy smoke?
Can hunger ever be softly soothed?
Does every welcome mat puncture our trust?
Can silence be louder than the cold?
Can a jagged thought still bleed poetry?
Can you soak away a day this heavy?
Does every lather leave a scar?
Is your heaviest baggage built to stay?
