Del Oro: Rain

Del Oro: Rain – Archival Digital Print – 15 x 20 inches

Imaginary Films – The street exists and so does the rain and the cars and the man and woman with the umbrella. The theater exists too, but the movies don’t; they’re inventions.

The Elderly Brothers
Gasliar
Renegade Biker Sluts.”
