Macchiato: A Visual Journey of Self Through the Lens of Imperfections

"My life is a procession of stains, a parade not of decisions yielding dire consequences, but of the literal sort. My possessions and essence, tainted by filth, fracture, decay, and debasement. Each thread dirty."

"Greg's photos are simultaneously tender and raw, pulsating with an authenticity and eroticism that bring to mind Goldin and Mapplethorpe," remarked Richard Baiano, president and co-Owner of Childs Gallery in Boston.

In Macchiato, Hazel and his male subjects are captured in unguarded moments, exposed and unapologetic in their embrace of perceived inadequacies and imperfections. Each image, driven by impulse and curiosity, invites the viewer to confront the inherent vulnerability in revealing the truth behind the stains.

Macchiato is scheduled for May 5-7, 2023, from 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm, at Hazel's studio at 11 Humphreys Street, Dorchester, MA.
