"Ross Sawyers' photographs hold our interest through a very subtle touch and the strange invention of his stages. With the exception of a few billowing plastic curtains, nothing much happens in these environments. The intensity and quality of the raking light take hold and pull us into a world where nothing seems right. Each space appears solid, but its edges are too sharp and thin. There is little distance between inside and outside, locating a nuanced threat just beyond these rooms. These spaces recall unfinished housing developments and luxury condo projects abandoned by unscrupulous investors, ready to fall down at any moment."
