Description: The fifth in Cynthia Davis' series of visual explorations of Michigan and Great Lakes locales, ""Chicago"" offers a look at one of America's great cities unlike any other. Here, Davis turns her artist's eye on Chicago in these remarkable hand-altered Polaroid photographs. Davis creates her work by manipulating the gel-like chemicals in Polaroid photographs while they're still developing, imbuing her pictures with a dream-like quality, somewhere between photorealism and impressionist painting. Anyone who has traversed Chicago's Magnificent Mile, lounged on its sunny beaches, wandered through the canyons of the Loop, or explored the diversity of its many neighborhoods will appreciate how Davis transforms well-known terrain into landscapes at once familiar and magically new.
