I so wanted to back a UK photographer
Written by duckrabbitfor Magnum’s expression award but Andrea Star Reese’s work blew me away. I mean the world really doesn’t need another essay about homeless people in New York, right?
‘The Urban Cave, is an ongoing effort to document men and women living in makeshift dwellings around New York despite the city’s efforts to empty their encampments. It is a story about the resilience and humanity of people who live “on the other side” of conventional society. Most of all it is about a group of individuals and the spectrum of their lives, rather than the ways they live without.‘
