Barrie Jones
Uniformed Workers
January 9–February 6, 2004

Two-person exhibition, presented in conjunction with the 2004 Windsor Labour Arts Festival. Photographer Barrie Jones examines the rituals of corporate identity and social role-playing in his series Uniformed Workers. Subjects ranging from police officers to fast-food workers are captured on the job in `heroic’ posed shots. Denying the photographic moment, they stare beyond the viewer, subsumed entirely into the workplace persona determined by their uniforms.

Curated and organized by Artcite, the Bezaire/Jones exhibition represents the third successive year in which Artcite participated in Windsor’s annual Labour Arts Festival.
