Shoot the Breeze: Kristie Muller

Intro by Darby Milbrath

I met Kristie recently in an alleyway in Chinatown, Toronto. I liked her right away. She felt like a sister. Kristie’s photos seem to focus on parts instead of wholes, framing and isolating the bland or the ordinary parts of life until they seem surreal, like repeating a word over and over again until it’s nonsensical. It’s like she’s an alien sent down to surveil earth. I’d like to go into her head for awhile and see what she sees and know what she dreams about.
