One image juxtapose against another image. And then the title. The most simplistic of collages. And still interesting. Frank Mesaric

29 03 2015I don’t know how I feel about Forbes’ work. In itself. But a good part of me is Irish and this documents some of the places, some of the world, my great grandparents might have lived. I think there is something to be said for that. You can see it in some homes. Pictures of the old country. Its an emotional anchor. The feeling that you came from some place. That you or your family had a history.
But… I don’t feel attached to any of it. Me and my friends (whose parents came from Italy, Slovakia, South Africa) are more attached to our western Toronto suburb of Islington. In particular The Six Points. I don’t know with the internet etc. if that will be the same for the new generation. Perhaps their roots will be in Ipads and Blackberrys.
