“Ad Hominem”
Ross Coulter
18 Sept → 10 Oct 2009

Ruth Brown, J-Man, kickboxing, fake tan,
Find yourself, find again, a man again, the guy again

The windows are the windows to the soul

Of the street

Atget photos v Lacan mirror
The luna eclipse, a pony ride, the audience await a shooting star

Ken Burns in full effect

Sean not peoples, they’re Mezzmorized
And Mr Tu

Walled in and out
Reframed again
Enframed again

The frame again is the scaffold my friend,
Who keeps me?

in or out
