Street photography as cultural resistance

8210003 New York City 2022

Black and white photograph of a woman with curly hair and large, round sunglasses in the foreground, standing against a bustling urban backdrop. Behind her, the facades of buildings display prominent signs for 'Best Buy', 'NORDSTROM rack', and 'DUANEreade'. Pedestrians cross the street, and city life unfolds under the reflection-laden windows of the adjacent building. The contrast between the woman's composed expression and the fast-paced city environment creates a compelling visual narrative.
