In the 1990s Christopher Wool began exploring photography capturing the gritty reality of East Village, New York and other marginalized regions of other cities. As with his paintings, Wool manipulates imagery often using a Xerox machine to make copies of his photographs and copies of the copies, etc., the repetitive process distorting the image, degrading the colors and blurring the lines. Through his process, Wool creates distinct images and collective bodies of work.
