Matthew Scott's Observing: Venice

Matthew Scott recently got in touch to let me know that he updated his website with a new series entitled Observing: Venice. Much like the title suggests, this project is comprised of observational studies of the people and places of Los Angeles' Venice district. I find myself gravitating less to the formalism of Scott's Dijkstra-esque portraiture and more toward the spontaneous, often juxtapositional surprises he sensitively captures.
