« J'ai découvert le front de mer en m'installant à Brooklyn, j'avais un peu plus de vingt ans. Beaucoup de bâtiments étaient à l'abandon. Voyant que tout ça allait disparaître, j'ai ressenti le besoin, presque le devoir de le documenter. J'étais attirée secrètement par l'idée d'archiver le paysage où je venais de débarquer, de le cartographier, de me familiariser avec lui, de me l'approprier, de m'y incorporer. »
Ce livre, qui n'est pas sans rappeler Sur les quais d'Elia Kazan, est l'hommage personnel de la photographe Sophie Fenwick à la beauté intemporelle de New York.

« I discovered the waterfront in my early twenties when I moved to Brooklyn. Much of it was abandoned and falling apart. Knowing it would vanish, I felt an urge, almost a duty, to document it.
I was also secretly guided to record the landscape of where I had just landed and found myself mapping its borders, becoming familiar with it, appropriating it, becoming a part of it. »
Reminiscent of Elia Kazan's On the Waterfront, this book is a beautiful and personal tribute to a timeless New York, by photographer Sophie Fenwick.
