"A window is at once an opening and a closure, a protection and a weakness. It’s also something that we see every day to look through but rarely to look at. Sean McGarry’s photographs surprise by stealth, exploring the fascinations of this everyday object, focusing on the surface, delighting in the poetry of light and texture and leading our eyes to drift into the dreams and metaphors layered in and beyond this essential channel of light, intrigue and information. Like the daydreams that windows so often inspire, these images offer languid meditations on the relationship between our inner selves and the outside world. Observed from the inside out the eye negotiates the warm curtain fabrics, the defining frames and the cool infinity of the world beyond, sometimes seductive, sometimes disruptive and always emotive. “ Stephen Mayes, CEO VII Photo Agency, New York
