Katy Grannan — Michael and Evan, Redhook NY
Katy Grannan

Michael and Evan, Redhook NY

A striking silver gelatin print by Katy Grannan capturing two figures in the unsparing, direct light characteristic of her portraiture work. Grannan's unflinching lens reveals the quiet vulnerability and raw humanity of her subjects, Michael and Evan, set against the gritty backdrop of Red Hook, New York. The black-and-white medium intensifies the emotional tension between intimacy and exposure that defines Grannan's documentary-style approach to portraiture.
