TALL CANS & SMOKES ALL AROUND... "TREADING THE LINE BEYOND REALITY AND ARTIFICE."

CAUSING A SCENE: "Growing up under the pristine skies of Hollywood Boulevard, the film industry’s greatest exporter in melodrama and fantasy, the line between reality and artifice was always something of a blur for renowned photographer Alex Prager.

Therefore it seems only natural that she would imbibe many of the same aesthetic codes through her work, but whereas Hollywood sells dreams, Prager interrogates them: using photography and film to examine the interplay between fact and fiction, light and dark, perfection and chaos. These are just some of the inherent tensions that lie at the centre of her ten year oeuvre and which now, on the eve of her first mid-career retrospective, she is breaking down and shuffling into order."

I’ve never been that good at standing up to

The way that people treat me but

I sure as hell can tell what you mean when

You're screaming at me that

I will never be able to get close to anyone as long as

I am unable to admit that they are hurting me

With your sunglasses on and your feet in the creek I would not go around here if you were not here with me And I'm assembled this way in the space here, don't take There's no legible south I can evoke when you go away Life was not bad with tall cans and hold hands You're my best friend and I need you, do you know that? With your overalls on and your feet in the creek An assemblage of moments of when you wanted me And I evoked you today, with my feet in the creek As if you'd feel something shake you, as if you'd think of me And say Life was not bad with tall cans and hold hands You're my best friend and I need you, do you know that?
