Times Square Cell Phone in Neon Reds - Street Photography

Creator: Mitchell Funk
Offered by: Robert Funk Fine Art

Description
Street Photographer Mitchell Funk uses a Nikon Z8 mirrorless megapixel camera to photograph the screen of a Times Square tourist's cell phone camera. The resulting image is a photograph of a photograph on location and raises questions about the ubiquitousness of image takers. Funk's image is defined by its hyper-saturated reds, punchy magentas, and rectilinear graphic composition.

This archival color photograph by Mitchell Funk is signed, dated and numbered 3/15, lower right recto. Other sizes are available and the fine art photograph is unframed and printed later. Printed on Hahnemühle Fine Art paper
