RESIDES...Chicago
BIO...Cole was born in sunny Arizona, and moved to frigid Chicago in 2003. He received his BFA in Photography from Arizona State University, and received his Photography MFA from Columbia College Chicago. He has exhibited nationally and internationally.
"I work in practically every type of photographic medium, including 19th century processes, type-C, digital imaging, and video. My work deals with issues of gender, class, sex and sexuality--universal issues I feel are of pressing importance. I often attempt to seduce my viewers with beauty and humor, sometimes subtly playing with their brains (as so many seductions do)."
