Profiles captures monumental figures dramatically engaged in everyday actions. The figures in the photographs are altered sports trophies that have had their basketball, tennis racket and hockey stick replaced with a stroller, hammer,
clipboard, or other work‐related prop. Enlarged and shown without their pedestals, the individual statues feel uncannily human in their expressions and imperfections. Together these life‐size representations of a janitor, handyman, assistant, cashier, mechanic, cook and
babysitter celebrate the unsung heroes whose everyday labors ordinarily go unrecognized.
