South Brooklyn

1999 - 2024

South Brooklyn is my home. For decades, I have returned to its streets with a camera, drawn to the built environment, the unprogrammed margins of the city, the textures of the everyday and the political. These photographs map a landscape in constant flux—where industry gives way to vacancy, vacancy to gentrification, and memory to reinvention.

 

This body of work is not only a record of South Brooklyn’s changing face but also a personal archive. The images carry the weight of longing and desire, of memory and loss. They are meditations on place, on belonging, on the slow violence and quiet beauty that shape the urban fabric over time. What emerges is both a portrait of a neighborhood and a self-portrait, inseparable from the histories that have passed through and stayed with me.
