Ken Ohara's photographic series of one-hour-exposure portraits create in their final form a new identity for each subject. The traditional evaluations we make of a portrait, i.e. "How do you look?" are lost in the blur of a passing hour.

Qhara's collective subjects create a wry and melancholy portrait of the absent artist.
