Deborah Luster, "A Tooth for an Eye" 2008-10. Toned silver gelatin print mounted on Dibond.

In 1988, Luster's mother was murdered by a hired killer. The tragedy understandably flavored her artwork. "A Tooth for an Eye," is a series of photographs taken throughout the streets of New Orleans, each location once the site of a homicide.

Luster's work is uniquely characterized by the circular framing, almost as if the viewer is looking down the barrel of a gun. Her photographs are a blunt depiction of life insisting upon itself, even in the face of death.

People said he resembles Elvis and I can see why :)
