..June 2007 New York..
Little Brooklyn:
Sorry for the long radio silence. Congratulations on the Exotic World accomplishments. A couple of days before I left Tokyo I told friends Little Brooklyn will bring the crown back home this year. Was very close. Must have been a great performance. Now think I have fortune teller type of powers. It was great to hear your performance was a big success.
Thanks for the message about the gallery exhibition. I have to thank you once again for the opportunity to take that photo. It was the catalyst for the project. Prior to that photo all the other performers I was working with didn’t know where I was coming from with the project. I was seriously thinking about scrapping the project before I took that photo. I owe you a huge thank you.
As for Tokyo, the exhibition is still up for 10 more days. It was a large opening at the gallery. I was shocked at the reception and response to all of it. There were so many people at the opening Cherry Typhoon had to perform on in a small space in the gallery. The exhibition has gotten good reviews. The exhibition was a part of what they call photography month in Tokyo. There are about 400 galleries participating.
More good news is that the exhibition will be shown for a month in Shanghai. The Tokyo gallery has a sister gallery there. It’s all been a nice surprise. I have a lot of the small promotional fliers with your photo on it. I want to pass those along to you. Also want to show you the video tape of the exhibition and still photos. Your photos is hanging off the ceiling and is visible from the street. I stood outside the gallery on afternoon watching bikes pass and stare at the photo.
I’m fighting jet lag right now. But I hope to get back to a normal routine this weekend. Maybe next week we can meet up one night and I can give you all the fliers and show you the video tape. Thanks again. Sorry for being so hard to get in contact with. The exhibition was a long stressful but worthwhile process. Hope your well. Take care.
Paule

..May 2007 Asakusa, Tokyo, Japan..
Cherry Typhoon….Close to the end of my trip. I woke up early to photograph Cherry Typhoon in Asakusa.
Jet lagged and eager. My mind is working again since I have a photo to take. The day off drove me crazy. I don’t do well with free time and nothing to do. The anxiety sets in that I’m wasting my time.
I feel good this morning. Would be a good time for a walk. I feel like a caged tiger. I’m ready now.

..May 2007 Under a tall office building behind the bushes in Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan..
Murasaki Babydoll
Eva Violet tried to get this photo done before the exhibition in Tokyo. We could never arrange a photo because their trip to New York was canceled months before. We finally got it done a year and half later. I shot this under a fading sun in Shinjuku. Only an hour as the sun fades quickly in the Center of the Black Eye.
The color dominated what I saw. They were very silly as Japanese schoolgirls. What I expected. Eva had difficultly getting to the shot. A gig the night before, wild night at the performance. They rushed to get their costumes on in the bushes underneath an office tower. I still think about these women weeks later…
I would like to photograph them next time with a darker setting.
