Yes, that’s queer. You’re championing the underground. The forgotten ones. The forgotten rooms. You’re taking full color photographs of the overlooked parts. Look up, you missed something. Look behind you, you forgot to put someone in the picture. Look at what you’re missing. Who’s not here? Who should be in the room?
