So as I move on this creative journey, I’m taking you with me, sharing with you what my experience has been like so far.
Mo Gelber is an NYC based street photographer, who gravitated towards the craft to sooth the pain he had been carrying most of his life. When recounting his childhood he tells us, “I grew up in a dysfunctional home full of violence” he continues “my father would let out all his personal frustrations on me”. His suffering needed solace and it was street photography that what going to bridge the gap between the two.
