New York City Street Photography

This collection of candid street images symbolizes the changing nature of New York during the pandemic. Masked and uncovered faces, people doing essential, recreational, or everyday activities, these photographs chronicle thriving city life alongside isolation and loss of social interaction. They document how people have come to adapt to this crisis through spontaneous, fleeting, and unplanned moments in my home city of New York. The goal of this collection is to encapsulate a microcosm of people, places, and narratives that lie beneath the surface.

Photographer

Sharon Steinbach

New York City-based artist, Sharon Steinbach, is primarily a multi-genre street photographer, yet not exclusively, seduced by nature and wherever her eye and passion lead. Creating art has been her life-long desire.
In particular, she has emerged as a fine art photographer, capturing the diverse facets of the human experience through visual storytelling, imagination, and reinvention, whether representational, realism, abstract, or documentary.
Her work has most recently been on display in curated group exhibitions organized by the Wilton Arts Council in Connecticut; Cambridge Art Gallery in Glen Head, Long Island; Southampton Cultural Center in Southampton, New York; and others. Through competitive juried exhibitions, Sharon has won awards for her work. One of her images was shortlisted for the London-based Visual Artists Association’s International Exhibition & Scholarship Prize for its “high standards of quality and creativity.”
Sharon has a successful website (www.SharonSteinbach.com) where she sells fine art prints and writes a periodic blog. She continues to have her work accepted and shown, largely in the New York tri-state area.
