Description

Digital pigment print of an untitled photograph by Seren Kohen of a group of a Hasidic Jewish man walking in New York. The man is dressed all in black, with a traditional frock coat and fedora-type hat, which he is holding in front of his face, leaving only his fluffy white beard exposed. The background of the photo, showing a black iron fence surrounding a school and playground, is blurred, suggesting the man's speed.
