Piece description from the artist
Living in East New York in the winter was truly a special experience. There is a certain cold, a certain loneliness that exists there that feels abandoned. A persistent calm fills the streets with melancholy and intrigue. As snow cascades down onto the homes and sidewalks, there is a new majesty that blankets the otherwise forgotten section of the city. The white snow highlights the best and worst qualities of the neglected community.
Vanessa 'Venusian' Edwards is a Brooklyn-based visual artist, photographer, and Temple alumna who thrives on color, concept, and creativity. Through visually stimulating editing, she loves to emphasize the aspect of story and human emotion in any single photograph. Her favorite saying regarding her work is "human emotion is a lost art", which is something she aims to capture in every shot. As creative director and co-curator of the New York Art Collective and 1/2 of the creative team Sickly Particular, she is an active participant and driver of the arts community in Brooklyn. Her debut solo show, "She's Damaged" was an incredible success which has motivated her to continue her own creative projects and collaborations as well as curating other group shows.
