THE STORY BEHIND THE IMAGE:
Chicago’s downtown was the original inspiration for the New City collection, a playful reimagining of urban architecture, verticality, and density. “Inake” started as a snapshot of the view south from the Van Buren Street bridge over the Chicago river. The realistic photo was intentionally distorted and recolored using several digital applications, employed randomly until I arrived at a result I liked.
