A collection exploring the economic panorama between North Brooklyn and Queens by photographer and designer Farhan Ajram. Primarily based in New York Metropolis, Ajram is drawn to the thought of documenting cities and revealing their kinds and tonalities by way of the convergence of form and shadow in shared moments of time. A recurring theme in his work is the stress between city life and the tranquility of nature.
“The collection explores the economic panorama between North Brooklyn, the place I stay, and Queens, with Newtown Creek as its backdrop. The realm is house to the biggest oil spill in U.S. historical past and is without doubt one of the most polluted websites within the nation. It’s a hub for junkyards, waste administration amenities, and warehouses. By pictures, I intention to higher perceive the panorama I stay in and the way trade shapes our cities.”
