About the Item

Gold-toned gelatin silver print with 8-ply over-mat and mounted to archival, 4-ply Crescent Natural White mat board Signed and numbered, recto 25 x 30 inches, overall mat size 20 x 24 inches, paper size (Edition of 20) 39 x 48 inches, overall mat size 30 x 40 inches, paper size (Edition of 10) This artwork is offered by ClampArt, located in New York City. Michael Massaia is a fine art photographer and printmaker who has spent the past ten years documenting areas and objects that never extend too far from his front door. Isolation, disconnection, and an attempt to put a spotlight on the ordinary are the constants in all of his work. He focuses primarily on large format black-and-white film, utilizing a variety of highly modified proprietary analog and digital printing techniques. Massaia works alone and is the sole craftsman from the instant the negative is exposed to the moment the final print is made. In 2008, Michael Massaia started to document the amusement piers that skirt the New Jersey coastline during their most vacant moments (usually between the hours of 4:00 and 6:00 a.m.). These images were predominantly shot on the Funtown and Casino Piers in Seaside Park and Seaside Heights, New Jersey. In 2012, Hurricane Sandy rolled in and completely destroyed both piers. The landscape was forever altered. These images chronicle the final days of these piers, as well as what remained of the piers after the hurricane.
