Kyle Thompson

I ran across him on Tumblr, and realized that he is one of the photographers Kate spoke about in our lecture of portraits. He is from around Chicago Illinois, and enjoys to shoot portraits, including many self-portraits that he takes in the woods or abandoned homes/buildings. After reading through his blog, I found out that he is living in his car while traveling the US/Canada to complete a book he has been working on for a few years. He also firmly believes in not naming much of his work because he feels as though it takes away from the viewer's meaning of a piece. Of all the artists I've seen so far, Thompson is one of my favorites.
