“...when a man wants to say nasty things about Toronto he calls it Hogtown.” - Global Editorial, 1898

In 2009, I moved to Toronto, Canada’s largest metropolitan area, to seek a better prospect. I was amused by the vibrancy of the street and the animated manner in which its inhabitants presented themselves. Subsequently, I began photographing scenes around me, attempting to make sense of the place I'd newly settled. These eventually became a collection of photographs from such a venture.
