Description

David Lurie's latest collection explores the intersection of photography and technology in the modern city. With his characteristic eye for composition and lighting, Lurie examines the impact of smartphone cameras on street photography, revealing both its democratizing effects and its disempowering consequences. In this new work, Lurie visually dramatizes the explosion of affordable camera technology, which has also fueled the growth of social media platforms. The resulting images not only capture the ubiquity of urban life but also raise questions about the ownership and exploitation of personal data in the digital age. By re-examining the role of street photography in documenting popular culture and the working classes, Lurie's collection offers a nuanced commentary on the changing nature of image-making and its relationship to technology.
