Katherine Childs  

This exhibition shows a selection from Childs’ series on public telephones. These ubiquitous objects are generally invisible in this age of cellphones. She uses photography to document the interplay between the built environment, cultural artifacts, and intentional interventions on public spaces. In her photographs, telephones take on distinct personalities and are positioned as figures, interacting with their surrounding landscapes. They are also a poignant indicator of the often unseen individuals who use them.
