The Boy Mechanic Los Angeles
"The Boy Mechanic" is an ongoing project that will document the history of lesbian bars in cities and towns across the United States and Europe.
In 2004-2005 as a recipient of the City Of Los Angeles Fellowship, I began the research for the Los Angeles Edition [of "The Boy Mechanic"]. The vast geography and dense web of highways in Los Angeles demanded a different approach to both the research and the resulting exhibition. In 2005 COLA exhibited two large scale framed color photographs, a chalk board wall sized drawing of a map of Los Angeles annotated with bar site snapshots and anecdotal text, and a ten minute video loop of drive-by footage of the located bar sites.
