“These images mark a series of firsts: my first time shooting on colour film, and my first collaboration with Ella Snyder. There was a certain electricity in that unfamiliarity, where every frame became a small act of trust, of quiet listening to light, shadow, and gesture. Shooting on film slowed us down, inviting presence and tenderness. These are more than portraits, they’re records of a beginning, and of how art can emerge when two people meet the unknown together.”
“My name is Timothy Cheng, a New York City-based artist blending sculpture and analogue/digital photography. I graduated from Parsons in January 2025 with a BFA in Photography, and my work explores beauty, identity, and transformation.”
