Enigmatic

Werewolf, East Harlem NY Amy Stein

I find this portrait every bit as enigmatic as this one. Amy Stein's work is a remarkable balance of strength and tenderness, pathos and humor. I do not want to go down the road (with its attendant potholes) of ascribing this to a gender but I am so glad to see these images, done by a woman. She is having a solo show of her Stranded series on the Humble Arts Foundation site for the next month complete with an interview.
