Dazzle

Bert Teunissen has created a distinctive series of photographs while walking the streets of New York City and London. Using an analogue camera and a unique way of printing, his images become a collection of stripes and dots in which we see no faces, just gestures and the patterns of clothes. People become the lively wallpaper of the bustling city. This book brings Teunissen’s work together for the first time in a jazzy sequence with an additional layer of highly pigmented white ink, in the process creating patterns within patterns. It is a dizzying, dazzling, and vibrant abstract portrait of urban life.
