Concentration Six
Artist Hero Three
In my third artist hero post I chose to do Henry Chalfant. Our works are similar to each other with the graffiti being used as the subject matter. The colors are so beautiful and the messages that they relay through the photo is so beautiful. His photos mainly surround the subway art in New York City, and the urban culture in the city. As you can tell in the first two pictures the graffiti is on the trains of New York. Many of the artworks he has taken pictures of has yet been removed physically off buildings and trains but still live on through his pictures. I hope to capture pictures such as these and show how truly beautiful the city is even though is isn't your "classic" beauty. Chalfant has included humans within his pictures conveying the city life day by day even though it seems so sad the people have their fun even though life maybe rough and hard. He has brought a lot of attention to the community in showing their daily lives. The intricate designs have caught the eye of his enough to put the effort and time and take pictures of them, and show the beauty to the world justt like I plan to do.
