A Video Essay + Thoughts on KAGE | Patrick La Roque

A lot of posts coming in the very near future but they have to wait. In the meantime I thought I’d give you an update on our KAGE COLLECTIVE project. A month from now we’ll be celebrating our first anniversary. Time flies you say? No kidding. If I look at what we’ve done so far I see quite a bit of soul searching but I believe this was necessary. We dove feet first into this project and had to invent the rules and the tools along the way. The website went through major changes, we switched platforms to streamline publishing, had to postpone selling prints… Growing pains. But I believe there’s a lot of potential at the core of it all. One thing we didn’t expect was Paul Pride’s recent move to leave KAGE, sell his X100 and shoot film exclusively. I didn’t see that one coming and I’ll admit to still being in a mild state of shock about it, given how important that camera was to his photographic universe. But we all respect his decision and wish him the very best. Life is nothing if not ever-changing…
