Harlem Plantation

Description

I grew up along a winding river road, with my childhood home rooted between two plantations, spaced two miles apart. It wasn't until my adolescence that I truly began to comprehend the horrific role these majestic mansions played in the southern states. Through my photography, I have long documented the love-hate relationship I've experienced growing up in the deep south, while illuminating its challenging realities. This photo was taken in 2017 as I stood on the levee bank along the river. It was well into the night and a passing tugboat was using its spotlight to locate a barge near the levee. While the camera's shutter was open, the light from the tugboat's spotlight swept across the facade of the house creating a unique lighting I've yet to recreate.
