Ambiguity of Cityspace

entry description
What is it about being on the outside looking in that piques our interest? Our view at the boundary between sidewalk and storefront may be fractured by exterior reflections or by window frames that separate different perspectives. In constructing the graphic images in this portfolio, I have reordered these sometimes ambiguous views into new compositions. If you wish to enter these new spaces as I do, then I will have accomplished my objective. My foremost goal in photography is to create novel perceptions of order within landscape, cityscape or the abstract.about the photographer
Richard Alan Cohen lives and works in the South End of Boston where he still pursues his college double major in art and science. He graduated from Bowdoin College and Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine. His lifetime interest in art derives from his mother, an art teacher and painter, and his father, a house designer and builder. His cityscape photography exposes the manipulation of urban inhabitants by contemporary design and style. Natural features that organize otherwise chaotic surroundings are emphasized in his landscapes.back to gallery
