Two Way Street with Gretchen Grace
Manage episode 429691985 series 2280588
Our guest today is Brooklyn native, Gretchen Grace, a fascinating street photographer whose journey in photography began with a high school class that sparked her passion. since then she’s been capturing the street scenes of New York City for decades.
Gretchen recently published a book called “Two Way Street” that showcases her unique vision. It’s an interesting mix of her classic black and white film work from the ’90s and early 2000s, alongside more recent color abstractions she’s been working on recently. This blend gives us a peek into how her style and perspective have evolved over time.
What I really like about Gretchen is her ability to find those “moments of the everyday” – those little slices of life that might seem ordinary at first glance, but become something special upon looking deeper. She has a knack for spotting those in-between moments that tell a story all their own.
Gretchen’s background in design has influenced her photographic eye, especially in her more recent abstract work. She describes these pieces as “photographic paintings.”
Throughout our chat, Gretchen’s love for New York City and its endless parade of characters and moments is obvious. Whether she’s wandering familiar streets or exploring new corners of the city, her enthusiasm for capturing the essence of urban life is infectious.
She continues to push the boundaries of her art, experimenting with new techniques and emphasizing human connection in seizing the “indecisive moments” that define her work.
So join us as we explore the world streets of New York through Gretchen Grace’s eyes.
