PHOTOGRAPHIC WORKS

BY

Joshua Zirschky

The work before you consists of a much larger vision. That vision is to bear witness upon humanity, capturing the everyday of the human condition. My calling as a photographer and working in the medium is not only to document the world theater but to ask questions.  

From the champion in the arena to the poverty riddled streets, I aim to open the window of light on the truths and untruths of the everyday before us.  Following in the great tradition of the photographic medium, I as a photographer have a heavy responsibility. That responsibility is to plunge deep into the agony and the ecstasy.  To experience and to watch. To breath in the heartbeat of this world. The beats in seconds of time, those 1/500th’s of a second. When geometry, light and emotional response fall in line; then I must at that very instant lock down on the moment and capture the true blood filled breath of humanity before me.
