Artist statement- I work as a janitor at a barber shop. This book is right outside of the shop. Whenever I am mopping/sweeping/buffering, people constantly pass this barber shop pole. Yet, when kids pass, they make their parents stop. They point at the pole in fascination. Sometimes (if I'm lucky), they peer inside, and I wave and smile.

Artist statement- The original picture was taken on a spontaneous trip to Washington D.C. I knew I was going on this trip three hours before we drove there. I went with my sister, my cousin and her boyfriend, so it was more independent from my parents. This picture was taken on a hike on the first day of the trip.
