Making do and getting by

Making Do and Getting By investigates processes of perception and communication – how we see what we see, what we do with what we see, how we name what we think we have seen, who we share it with and who is speaking to whom. Beyond this, it documents an excess – a creativity beyond necessary functionality, something transformative that lurks below the surface intention in acts of ordering and repair. In this ongoing series of photographs taken on his daily trajectories, Wentworth frames with a light and witty touch the art of the human hand.
