Jesse Chehak, Photographer, New York

Description

This documentary photograph by New York-based photographer Jesse Chehak captures an adult man and a younger individual interacting with a vintage artillery piece. Set outdoors in an arid, mountainous landscape under a bright, open sky, the subjects are positioned around the large-wheeled military artifact. The man stands smiling while wearing a light-coloured t-shirt and cap, while the child kneels nearby inspecting the machinery. Equipment cases and signs rest on the dry earth in the foreground. The natural lighting and candid style emphasize a direct, observational register.
