The Rooms is a fine art documentary photography project that explores the meeting spaces of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). These spaces, often referred to as "the rooms," are photographed as they are arranged for meetings, yet remain devoid of people. The collection emphasizes the diversity of spaces—ranging from church basements to small theaters, kitchens, gymnasiums, and beyond—each offering a glimpse into the unique environments where members gather.
This diversity mirrors the broad spectrum of people who pass through AA’s doors, representing all walks of life. Despite the differences in physical settings, there is a sense of spiritual commonality that connects the rooms, just as it connects the members who meet within them. These rooms become symbols of the shared journey toward recovery and unity.
The project also aims to shed light on these often-overlooked spaces, highlighting how ordinary, utilitarian rooms can take on profound meaning when transformed for the purpose of fellowship and healing.
