by Kurt Lightfoot

On the Urban Stage is a digital photography based body-of-work where the urban setting is analogous to a theatrical stage that humans use to dramatically act out their personal and collective narratives. Such narratives include public artists making strong visual statements, energetic protests raising awareness with the goal of creating societal change, cruising car culture expressing itself for the sake of itself, and personal statements looking for an audience. All On the Urban Stage.

On the Urban Stage is part of Visions4 2nd Edition

Visions4 is four artists traveling in their own orbits,
coming into alignment once again
for a unique exhibition of photography.
