The Woman in the Window

The Woman in the Window


When we woke up in Santa Fe, we went to a breakfast place recommended by our concierge and our guidebook called Cafe Pasqual's. Very good breakfast, and my first indication of how ubiquitous the art community was in Santa Fe -- even the menus there were festooned with art. I would go so far as to say, on average, that the art hanging on the walls of a bathroom at a bar were likely to be better than most of the fancy art installations in some other cities I'd been to.

Our table was by a window, outside of which was a USA Today (yech) news stand. People would come, pause, stare at the news, and it would be like they were peering in at us. I shot a series of strangers doing this, trying to turn the tables on the photographic problem.
