DAILY BLOTTER
The blotter series was inspired by events that impacted a close friend in the late 90’s. As a teenager growing up in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, these visuals reflect the choices we made, to the innocence lost for many of my friends. I saw this blotter capture the reminders of the beautiful tragedies that befall humanity and people of color. We are reminded to keep our third eye open, thriving in NYC and across the nation.
