Jack Perno's statement about BOB'S PORTAL:
Bob is a very quiet, thoughtful and multi talented man who can build anything. If it has an engine, he can build it. One of his interests was building large radio controlled planes from scratch. They are on display on his walls and ceiling. I was visiting him and armed with a box of Portals, asked if I could document him with his creations. As a private person, he was reluctant, but agreed to sit off in the corner of the photograph, if I didn’t ask him to do anything. I agreed. Aligning a double Portal with the surface of his work table was a real challenge and I didn’t have much time but it all worked out and he actually approved the final image. I’m very fortunate to have him as a friend.
Jack Perno's statement about THE PORTAL SERIES:
A gateway from one place to another, a world, a time , or to an expanded awareness.
Each image is a story or narrative, which susceptible to multiple interpretation, encouraging the viewer to derive their own conclusion and personal meaning.
