Sara Stolfa - the regulars

Sarah Stolfa envisions the boundaries of collective experience and isolation in her photographic series, The Regulars. Shot while bartending at McGlinchey’s, one of Philadelphia’s oldest taverns, these striking portraits resonate with the searching and loneliness of the urban bar experience. Yet in these images, Stolfa has found the dignity and individuality of her subjects. Composed with consistency of viewpoint and complexity of perspective, these portraits of the bar’s regulars blend the unusual state of detachment and intimacy found in a local bar.

cortinados

O sol estava fechado numa garrafa vazia. A alma fechada dentro de mim. Enormes cortinados de feltro defendiam das correntes de ar a sala do hotel. As mesas de madeira estavam manchadas, empenadas, escaldadas de chá.

camaradas

Ninguém nesse grupo fala muito dos outros, prefere os grandes temas, a politica ou os crimes, e sobretudo olharem-se uns aos outros satisfeitos, trocarem cigarros, sentarem-se nos cafés e viverem sentindo-se rodeados de camaradas.
