New Release ✨
Wonderland. Brooklyn 2007–2023 by Valery Rizzo is out now!
Over sixteen years, photographer Valery Rizzo documented Brooklyn’s bold, rebellious spirit as it transformed – an intimate, analog portrait of a borough in flux. 🌆⚡️
Capturing moments of everyday life through a viewfinder few would take seriously, Rizzo uses the unconventional lens of toy cameras to get close to her subjects, offering an almost voyeuristic perspective.
The images feel intimate and familiar, like snapshots taken by a family member, revealing private gestures and fleeting moments with warmth and immediacy.
