Joel Zimmer

Photography – New York - Brooklyn

Joel Zimmer is a Canadian photographer, currently residing in Brooklyn, New York. For the past 3.5 years, Joel has photographed elements of day-to-day life in New York City, and by doing so, has created a daily record of the environment he calls home. Through this collection of photographs, he uncovers many different versions of New York: a city centered around parked bicycles, a city of colorful lights and abstract shapes, and a city where pigeons try to fit in too. Each of these seemingly mundane perspectives reveals a sense of levity and wonder; a reminder that the background of our daily lives is comprised of many unexpected and often missed details.
