Murray Death, self-portrait

I'm drawn to the world slightly askew from the norm: the light and shadow, the contrasts, the small contradictions in places that don't usually get a second look.

A lot of what I shoot is everyday: storefronts, transit, the objects people walk past without thinking. I'm interested in what those things say about a place when you actually stop to look.

Based in the Northeast U.S., but I shoot wherever I end up, locally and abroad. Most of the work here is street and toy camera/film photography, alongside some studio and digital pieces under Artwork.

A Field Notebook

Frame 001 · Artwork

“A sketch is a thought made visible. The finished piece is just the sketch that stopped moving.”

Murray Death draws in the margins: ballpoint creatures, ink studies, the half-formed things that surface between commissions. The notebook is not a gallery. It is a continuous sketch.

Artwork and stuff gathers the loose pages: character sketches, texture studies, abortive comics, and the occasional finished piece. They are offered here as artifacts, not portfolio: the raw ledger of a hand thinking on paper.
