This is the
4th installment of #1 D.A.D.s, my annual(ish) rogues gallery / award
show of some of the people who have been kind enough to let me take their photo.
There are actors, acrobats, authors, comedians,
curators, dancers, designers, doctors, drunks, DJs, editors, filmmakers,
gallerists, graffitos, journalists, models, musicians, organizers, photographers, poets, provocateurs,
publishers, rappers, singers, skaters, storytellers, tastemakers, tweeters,
and more.
#1 D.A.D.s is
a post that I look forward to and enjoy putting together each year, and serves to
remind me of the amazing community of creative people that I am lucky to be
surrounded by. Previous posts can be seen here: 2012, 2013, & 2014.
I was very
busy this year and I dropped the ball as
a blogger. Instagram is fun and has made it harder to get people to click on a link to just
look at pictures these days, and has also made “documenting” events feel a little less
urgent. I chose to focus on spending time with many of the people you see pictured here, visiting their homes and
studios and asking them about what they do. It was fascinating to see behind
the curtain on people’s process and hear their stories, and I’m enormously grateful
that they took time for me.
Huge thanks
to everyone featured here, thanks Max Fish for being the club house, and THANK
YOU for looking.
Without further ado, I give you the #1 D.A.D.s class of 2015:
