Passengers

Passengers is an exploration of daily life in New York City utilizing the themes and compositions of street photography, but in a more illustrative manner, as to present a different view of the uniqueness of this city.

For most New Yorkers, the transit system defines the contours of their lives: it knits together their daily parts, and conditions their sensibilities, with smiles, anguish, music listening, and queries of direction. Pulsing with life, the trains pass station-to-station, exiting, entering--taking its passengers on journeys from the mundane to the decisive.Nowhere else in America do citizens spend so much time underground.
