A Piece of My Internet

life: For over two decades (1977-2000), Stephen Shames photographed a group of boys coming of age in the Bronx in a neighborhood ravaged by drugs, violence and gangs.  These young men allowed Shames extraordinary access into their lives on the street and in their homes. Shames met the “Bronx boys” as children, and tracked them growing up, falling in love, and having children of their own. The work explores the interplay between good and evil, violence and love, chaos and family.  (see more here on Feature Shoot)
