Thom Gilbert, Photographer, New York

Description

This monochrome photograph by Thom Gilbert captures the exterior of a large canvas tent set up on grassy ground. The heavy fabric walls are draped and secured with tension ropes anchored to wooden stakes in the foreground. Two prominent black cross symbols are painted or affixed onto the white canvas flaps flanking the open entryway. The interior reveals a sparse arrangement with metal poles, seating, and a standing electric fan. Natural lighting and a high-contrast black-and-white grade emphasize the weathered texture of the fabric and the surrounding grass.
