The spectacle of the parade is both a collective effort and the absorption of its individual participants. They are organic in that they exist solely because of human participation. The performers feed off the crowds, and vice versa. By isolating small groups and individual figures in the parades, I expose the individual roles and states of mind that, combined, create the parade. The photographs show not only the parade’s spectacle and fanfare, but also the solitude and weariness of its performers.
