What does 30 minutes in a person's life look like?
Artist Susie Lee asked and answered that question while spending time at the Washington Care Center, a long-term nursing facility and rehab unit.
What she created is a series of highly-composed video portraits that are sometimes so quiet, you think they're still photos. The videos are silent. They last 30 minutes long -- real-time; there is no editing. And they feel so intimate, it can make viewers uncomfortable to watch.
The entire series is called "Still Lives" and it shows in one continuous loop on a monitor at the Care Center. Lee completed the project in 2010.
