This week, Dr. Hurley’s Snake-Oil Cure
is being guest edited by photographer JA Mortram.
Photographer and artist Lisa Manfre tells us about this affecting photograph:
“I took this picture during the summer of 2010. I was visiting my ill grandfather who just got kicked out of his apartment. It is a very little and uncomfy bed. It was his new bed. A year later, my grandpa passed away at the age of 84. When I look at this picture now, I can see this dominant red, which was his favorite color, but also this incredible source of light. I can’t help thinking it means something.”
