"I'm from NYC. People think of me as innocent, really shy, don't do anything outside of the box, but I like to graffiti. I'm very inspired by the urban life in NYC. I used to have a spot in Queens and you can graffiti there without getting in trouble. I do caricatures and sometimes I work with letters, but mostly faces. I'm an art therapy major, and I want to work with children. I'm taking an American sign language class, and would like to work with deaf or mute children. I'm very family oriented, and have always put them before my friends, so it's hard being away from them"- Yael
About Me
- Amanda
- I'm not doing this project to necessarily make new longterm friends, or go have a drink with these people. Nor is it to pass any judgements on ones life. My goal is to simply meet interesting, and maybe not so interesting strangers who I wouldve never taken the time to talk to otherwise. One that may differ, or perhaps relate to my own life. So many times, you walk past someone, and they wont even raise their head in the slightest to say hello. I'll never understand why. The challenge to myself is not only to surpass that simple hello with one person a day, but to convince them to look into my lens and tell me something about themselves. My name is Amanda Surkin, and this is my journey of meeting 100 new faces. Take the time to listen, you may learn something :)
