The Museum of the City of New York has opened a new exhibit reflecting on the Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing challenges left in its wake.
"New York Now: Home" features photography and video works made over the past several years that capture the changes across the five boroughs during the pandemic and its aftermath.
Artists capture the experiences of New Yorkers and shed light on life in the city before, during and after the pandemic. Neil Kramer is a photographer who captured the drastic changes we all experienced during the pandemic by documenting his personal experience in the spring of 2020. "It was definitely an experience of love and dealing with family responsibility during a traumatic time," Neil said."Then March hits, Queens was the epicenter of the pandemic," Neil said.
The trio hunkered down inside Neil's two-bedroom apartment in Queens and he started taking pictures. He said it was his way of coping with the seismic shift in how we all lived.At first, the images were light in nature, but after about a year the tone was heavier as things changed in his building.Some of Neil's images tie back to real moments that he's recreated.
