Photography by Denis Otrovskiy
Rough Road
December 3, 2020 - January 2, 2021

Over the last year the people of New York, other states and the rest of the world, have endured a lot of hardship. The sudden change of the way we live and behave had a dramatic impact on our existence. We continue to face unexpected consequences of these changes every day. We have suffered personal tragedies which are not similar to each other. We do not know what to expect and when the feeling of impending calamities will leave as… But, life is still going on. We cannot be thrown off by this experience.
The photos I present were taken over the last year. They depict the fragments of an everyday life in New York. These observations are a clear indication of the upcoming normality and everlasting hope.

His main interest is street photography, concentrating on candid street portraits depicting the subject’s character in an urban environment.
Ostrovskiy has exhibited his work on Long Island at the Art League of Long Island and fotofoto gallery and in the NYC area, including Salmagundi Art Club. He is a member of Long Island Center of Photography and Photography Club of Long Island.
