Midnight Sun

In June of 2014 the Russians plotting and scheming with the "Menagerie of the Well" thickened as James' physical and mental abuses, isolation and disenfranchisement by the Russians of his self-worth, marriage and his connection to the Studio 26 / Studio 26 Gallery had increased as his young Russian-USA wife, Marina Reiter, reached her pivotal plot point of deceitful betrayal and twisted her screws into James. In June of 2015 James found coded email messages between Marina and her Russian parents and her Russian General uncle that was fighting in the Ukraine that unveiled their plot: ..".On paranoik, psihopat!!! Ne govorja uzhe pro to, chto bezdarnyi, ne obrazovannyi, ne umnyi i lenivyi..." Marina is what Marina is a highly educated and well-trained Narcissistic-Suicidal-Socio-Psychopath bred to be a lying deceitful monster. A weapon of ordered chaos created by 'The Communist Party of the Soviet Union' so when the Russians decided to invest in the expansion of the Studio 26 brand into a storefront gallery space in the East Village of New York City they needed for James to be gone. James needed to be "NUKED!!!." Herein are the photographs that James took of his wife, Marina Reiter, and the words that he wrote and a collection of limited edition artist prints that he later created from those photographs to encapsulate the memory of "My Marina" as he followed Marina and as she moved them through the space of time that laid before them through 'Her' Russian "Menagerie of the Well." - Colvin James
