“The cut is starting to scab” by Photographer Dorian Tocker

A new photo series by Los Angeles-based artist and filmmaker Dorian Tocker. Tocker was born in Brooklyn and studied Directing at the American Film Institute. This project is a continuation of an ongoing body of work confronting rupture and impermanence. Shaped by the reverberations of childhood loss, “The cut is starting to scab” observes the subtle entropy of everyday environments, capturing the vivid strangeness and whispered sublimity of the ordinary emerging through evidence of wear, time, and human attempts at order.
