A fag, a crip, and a chick...Three lives on the rocks
1990

A faded photograph of three people posing together outdoors, with a hazy background that suggests a high-altitude or mountainous setting. The person in the center is seated and flanked by a standing man to the left and a woman to the right, both of whom are casually dressed. The image has a vintage look, with its colors faded to a monochromatic sepia tone.
