ASX on NYPH: Interim Award #3 – WINNER – Johnny Miller & Baptiste Lignel – “Coney Island” - Sometimes the combining of two items, or two individuals, or two styles or two colors, or two races or two nationalities, or two emotions or two boys or two girls or two sexes or two places or two ages or ALL of these things… sometimes these things can work together to provide a result that goes far beyond the simple doubling of the items… something that goes far beyond the 2 + 2 and becomes the 2 squared… an exponential result and so much, much more then if pulled apart. This principal is recited in the business world so much as to become almost cliche (teamwork! partnering! group goals!) and even in marriage it is a mantra at its core. The sum of the parts equals greater than the whole.

Parc d'attraction mythique à la marge de New York, qui a inspiré tous les photographes. Ici un nouveau regard, en quatre mains. L'approche de chacun des deux photographes, et chaque corpus d’image renforce l’autre, et élargit son sens. L'ensemble permet, en montrant très peu, de faire deviner et comprendre beaucoup. On ne voit pas Coney Island. On voit ce qui le constitue ?

We'd like to meet other photographers in order to do photo raids in Brussels, by night (between 8 pm and 2 am). It would be really cool if we can gather a few passionate people!
