My Photographic Journey
Recently, I visited The Noguchi Museum in Long Island City, New York. Established in 1985 by the sculptor Isamu Noguchi, it is situated in a 1920s industrial building across the street from his former studio. The museum houses an extensive collection of his works. It also has an outdoor sculpture garden.
When I was there, the room in this photo was lit only by the daylight streaming through the windows.
The Domino Sugar Refinery on the East River in Queens, New York, ceased operations several years ago and now awaits an uncertain future. I took this photo last summer on a fast-moving water taxi, so I didn't have much time to think about how to shoot it. I was attracted to the colorful tanks in the center, the angled shafts between the buildings, and the overall look of an industrial ruin.
