Why is there a tree in the middle of the bedroom? This was the first thing I thought when I saw Plate 23 of Gregory Crewdson’s Twilight. When working with the photographs of Crewdson‚ an American photographer who often depicts homes and neighborhoods‚ the world may never know for sure what is occurring in the photograph.
