So maybe Im behind the times here. Ive seen these for ages and have been meaning to look into what theyre all about. Heres what good old Wikipedia told me. Brandon Stanton, a 29-year old self-taught photographer, started Humans of New York in November 2010. Initially, he planned to gather 10,000 portraits of New Yorkers and plot them on a map of the city. The project soon evolved, however, when Stanton started having conversations with his subjects and including small quotes and stories alongside his photographs. “Humans of New York” has become more than just a photo census of people in New York City but a global act of kindness and charity efforts. These now hold even more beauty to me. How cool is it that simple conversations with people caused an artistic evolution. My take home message from this, we should chat more.
