Behind their sunglasses, inside their winter coats, and in their pockets, people hurry concealing their anxiety, the expectations for where they are going, and the disappointment they just faced. Scattered, catching a subway, crossing the street, walking a few city blocks or even a mile,
all in public view without their daily mask.
And like steam escaping a boiling pot their faces and posture, the way they walk and how fast they move, all tell the world their story of the day. When these moments are captured in images, they stay frozen in time waiting for a viewer to bring it back to life. In these depictions, human expressions are raw, unattended, and lost in a mix of the city’s vibe.

Edge of Humanity Magazine Curator Services
Although photography alone can tell a good part of the story, there are other factors that artists often overlook.
During their search for the best light or the truth, photographers sweat in the heat and shrivel in the cold. They smell the stench and enjoy the aroma of flowers. They are welcomed and frowned upon. The experiences of being there and the desire to tell the story carried on by pride for their labor of love and expectations that when finalized, the work will be fair to the subject and make a difference, can be overwhelming.
A fresh eye is necessary to organize the delivery of that material, in a fashion that is easy to follow, and yet has impact, by holding the spectators’ attention to the message one wishes to convey. This is when a curator comes into place. Unattached, the curator selects images aiming to promote engagement and consequently readers’ awareness.
