Mark Satin is a multidisciplinary artist who has spent the last 15 years capturing New York City on film. Initially a portrait and street photographer, his content and visual style broadened significantly with the purchase of a Mamiya RB67 mid-pandemic. While the world remained locked away, Mark took his new toy into the U.S. national parks to capture the country’s natural landscapes and emerged with a newfound appreciation for the location as subject. Returning to the DC metro area he began developing this new tendency by combining landscape photography and portraiture into a new style that spotlights the oft-overlooked spaces of his urban environment. Today you can find him criss-crossing the country in search of the perfect back alley, strip mall, dump, or otherwise ignored locale whose true identity is revealed when human beings are finally stripped away from the frame.
