NNYY I
Abstract wall art of the Manhattan skyline, half-dissolved at dusk
This image was made approaching Manhattan by ferry, when the sun is setting and the buildings start to glow. I wanted to capture what it feels like to be pulled toward this city, even when you know it might overwhelm you. So I layered multiple exposures, letting the skyline blur and merge until it became something more emotional than architectural. The orange warmth of sunlight on glass mingles with the darkening blue of water and sky. Nothing holds still. The buildings seem to breathe and shift, reflecting in the harbor, doubling themselves. It's how memory works, really, or anticipation: that sense of a place being more than itself, full of promise and also slightly out of reach. I keep returning to this image because it holds that tension. The city I'm drawn to, the one that exhausts me, caught in a single frame where it's both solid and dissolving.

The palette of NNYY I
A dusk palette: orange and amber sunlight on glass, sliding into deep blue water and cool brown. It holds warm and cool light at once, the way that hour actually does.
Where to place the NNYY I print in your home
The doubled skyline reads differently by daylight and by lamplight, which makes it a good companion for living rooms that change with the evening. It also suits anyone who misses a city they were glad to leave.
How NNYY I was made
The skyline appears to breathe and dissolve through layered imagery (multiple exposure), where separate moments merge into one frame. This creates a sense of motion and memory, as if the city is seen through water or recalled from a distance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the prints limited edition?
At the moment, prints are offered as open editions rather than limited runs. Each print is produced individually and made to order, with close attention to materials, scale, and presentation.
The goal is a work that feels right for the image and the space it lives in, not artificial scarcity. If you're looking for something exclusive, we can have a conversation about individual solutions.
Are the prints signed?
Prints are generally not signed. Signing is possible on request and can be discussed individually. Please note that this may affect production time and, in some cases, the overall cost.
How long does it take to receive a print?
Prints are made to order through reliable print partners in different regions. Production and delivery usually take two to four weeks, depending on the format and your location. If timing matters for a specific situation, get in touch and I'll do my best to help.
What is your return policy?
Since prints are produced individually and made to order, returns are not usually possible. However, if there is a production issue or damage during shipping, I will make sure it's resolved. If something doesn't feel right, please reach out and we'll take it from there.
