About

The images have a charming, disheveled quality, capturing intimate moments of friends and lovers in bed, on subway trains and buses, reading the paper, on the phone, in the shower. Every centimeter of Long Live The Large Family is chock-full of activity. No space lay unclaimed. If someone’s in grass, it’s overgrown. If they’re on a floor, it’s covered in papers. If they’re at a table, it’s a mess. If in a bed, the bed’s unmade. As such, Long Live The Large Family is a unique document of real life rendered on the private scale by an understated master of the form.
