‘Behind the Plexi’
2021
‘Behind the Plexi’ is a photo series focusing on the restaurant and food service industry, in Vancouver, BC, in a effort to raise funds to help support those in the industry who have been affected by the shutdowns and limitations currently in place.
As one of the four photographers on the project, these images constitute my contribution.
Restaurateurs are all working hard to keep things moving forward and to keep people employed. It goes without saying that they are all trying to save their businesses and, in doing so, to save the culture of owner-operated restaurants. It is this culture that they continue to cultivate that provide a sense of togetherness and vibrancy in their communities.
Partnering with ‘Breaking Bread’, and a other talented photographers, the combined images capture what life is like Behind the Plexiglas. With this project, we are hoping to capture the essence of this time period—a period of determination and resoluteness to keep going until we can all get through this.
