About Virgil DiBiase

I make a living as a neurologist but have been a photographer for as long as I can remember. But it
wasn't until a few short years ago that I included people in my images. Strangers mostly. From the
streets of NYC and Chicago, to small town Indiana and the dirt roads of New Mexico. Wherever I may be. I am
endlessly fascinated by faces. Eyes, texture, wrinkles, grit. The perfect imperfections. The
landscape within our faces. And how it all comes alive when two strangers meet. I am equally
fascinated by life stories, and what two strangers choose to share with each other. How quickly trust
develops. Or how guarded we can be.
My images are made during conversations with strangers. They are a product of this brief
relationship in public spaces. I suppose curiosity is my driving force. Aren't we all so curious about
each other?
