James Gallagher, Domestic 2, 2010: “I collect vintage photo books, sex manuals, clothing catalogs, textbooks and anything else that can be folded into my world. I usually paste down shapes to form backdrops for my scenes, then start placing figures onto them. The compositions usually come together quickly, without any preplanning. And to tell you the truth, I’m never quite sure what will happen.”
