Fascinated by the incredible hearth of culture that is NYC, strategic planner and hobbyist photographer Friko Starc set out to document it at its rawest, most candid form. For three years, he took portraits of strangers and passers-by at five Manhattan corners in what became The Corners Project, an inspired cross-section of New York’s living matter.

Frico made 5 books of portraits. By sitting for days at a time on one spot, he  captured a glimpse of that amazing mosaic that is New York.

The LAPP is a one-shot long time bulb exposure Photography, performed additionally with movement of light. LAPP originates on a real-time basis directly in front of the camera. Created between opening and closing the shutter. LAPP is descended from light drawing and has been developed in its own art form. As the evolution of light drawing, it is complemented with additional elements in the form of light figures, colors and light-forms to create such a special view.

The LAPP images are made by Jan Wöllert and Jörg Miedza,from Bremen, Germany. They have been working together since 2007 but neither are full-time photographers.

The Workspace project is an ongoing attempt to examine the quasi-private spaces people carve out of their public work lives. Such spaces represent a tug of war between personal expression and comfort on the one hand and the unyielding demands of work on the other. The long-term accumulation of the tokens of that struggle, over years or even decades, can be formally beautiful in a very human and touching way. The project is part of a larger series by Joseph O. Holmes, in which he asks friends and strangers to open up private spaces to his camera.

Because he documents a space exactly as he finds it, never arranged for the camera, the Workspace project is necessarily a spontaneous process.
