Mistaken Identities
This ongoing series has been exhibited at Stux Gallery( Chelsea ), CIRCA Art Fair ( Puerto Rico), Nurture Art Gallery ( Williamsburg, NY), and others
In Mistaken Identities, Edin Vélez detects enigmatic human details within the fabric of a vast, indifferent metropolis and presents them through the medium of digital photography.
The large scale portraits record the poses, attitudes and faces of a diverse stream of people navigating a dense urban landscape at the end of the day.
The photographs capture their private moments as they emerge from crowded backgrounds that, although abstracted, close in on them.
