Inspired by climate devastation this is a collection of New York City skyyscrapers and skylines taken at the end of the Covid quarantine as the city began to reopen. It was before the crowds and tourists returned and the city was stark, magnificent and at times grotesque. 34 color pages 11"x13" printed on Mohawk premium paper with eggshell finish.

"My fine art practice, influenced by surrealism, conceptual art and psychoanalysis is based on a lifelong respect and passion for photography. Now, I train AI models exclusively on my photographic archives to push the limits of pictorial plasticity while continuing my traditional digital photography practice simultaneously. I brought back a renewed sense of adventure to my 35mm digital photography. Nancy Oliveri, 1958, Providence, RI is an American photographer & recipient of numerous international exhibition awards, honors and features for her 20 photo books, still life & street photography.
