“Part of the pleasure of Stephen Waddell’s Arbutus Corridor (2009)
is its humble epiphany of color – those particular reds and greens
observed and gathered together in a photograph for unlikely pictorial
delight. What does it mean? It means that the world can look like that
and a photographer can picture it. But color will always elude symbolic
or dramatic containment. It is always excessive. Even when it is captured
it can’t be tamed. Arbutus Corridor is the final image in Waddell’s aptly
titled book Hunt and Gather (2011). These street photographers do hunt,
but what they photograph is not ‘prey’. Their subjects were already images,
waiting to be noticed."
