"At the end of the day if the crevices of my hands are full and the dirt doesn't come out... its been a good day". Angela Franks Well's art originates from a love of labor. Being raised by a machinist and a mechanic; the necessity for hard work, skill, professionalism, and perseverance has been embedded in her being. Angela photographs independently owned local shops of skilled labor (mechanics, plumbers, welders, etc.). The images reflect the austerity of the environment, the value of mastered craftsmanship, and relationship between the shop and people working within.
