Somethings change during recessions. Somethings stay the same. New York will always be New York. In some ways it changes. In other ways it stays the same. In his tribute to the Big Apple, Daniel Norman captures a bit of a recession New York state of mind.

Recessions inspire transition. A moment to consider how life could be lived differently if the tables turned. A minute to ponder reinvention of the self. The promise of hope is there, but just a little out of reach. You might find yourself lingering in the space in-between. In this series titled ‘The In-Between’ Ariel Rubin presents fine art photography dedicated to the reflective process and what it means to grow in this day and age.

The world is falling down around us. But we keep on truckin. Check the link below to see more of Joseph Szymanski’s work.
