Pockets of Joy (2023)
DESCRIPTION:
One of a kind, photographic artwork created through digital manipulation. Printed on high-quality acid-free paper using archival pigments. This is a unique print, no others will be made. 30 X 30 inches with an additional 3” white border. Complete dimensions are 36 X 36 inches. Signed and dated, with a print-number (1/1), on the border.
THE STORY BEHIND THE IMAGE:
The New City collection is a playful reimagining of urban architecture, verticality, and density. “Pockets of Joy” started as an intentionally blurred photo of West Harlem in Manhattan, New York City, looking south from the 11th floor of an apartment building at 150th and Riverside Drive. The image was intentionally distorted and recolored using several digital applications, employed randomly until I arrived at a result I liked. The composition is intended to capture the flavor and energy of a happy time in New York, with colors that speak to the paradoxical feelings of wistfulness and abrasiveness that inevitably characterize urban life.
