CORONA BALLET
These photos were all taken on March 18th 2020 at the beggining of the COVID-19 pandemic. Ballerina Ashlee Rose Montague & I set out, practicing safe distancing and sanitizing techniques, into a NYC ghost town to shoot these.
These 6 photographs are currently available as limited editions of 10 (sized 12" x 18") for $200 each as part of the #artistsupportpledge, a pandemic initiative that urges emerging & established artists to sell affordable works & buy work from other artists to combat drastic loss of income among artists due to COVID-19.
If you are interested in collecting an edition please email METAGASM@GMAIL.COM and let me know the titles of the works you like, currently at least one edition of all 6 photographs is available. Click images for titles.
Our shoot was widely covered in the news that week when a REUTERS photographer captured a scene from the shoot.
A tee shirt version of the first image is available here: https://sexmouth.myshopify.com/
