Lens Damon Winter

Male and female characters from the performance artist Yvette Helin’s Pedestrian Project serve as the canvas for scenes from Greenpoint, Brooklyn: clockwise from upper left, graffiti on Clay Street, the “eggs” of the Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant, a patriotic mural on Berry Street and a soccer field at McCarren Park.


This is the last installment in Damon Winter’s Lens series. To view each image in the series and hear the photographer discuss his process, go to this audio slide show.
