Artist Statement:
New York City itself is the symbol of resiliency. The people, the skyscrapers, the neighborhoods have gone through uncountable challenges and it is still vibrant and proud.
Nothing epitomized this more than the great Manhattan bridge. Spanning solid, the stoic blue colossus that connects Lower Manhattan to Brooklyn in quiet simplicity compared to its flashier sibling to the south.
For over a hundred years has it provided a sense of stability, casting long shadows over Lower Manhattan, forever reminding all of its presence. No matter the challenges New York faces, there it stands, moving man and his machines to the future.
