Khalik Allah Harlem, New York City, USA. 2020. From the series 125th & Lexington.
“When I stop a person in the street to take their photograph it's because I recognize their inner light. Focusing on the light
(...) in others reinforces it in yourself. Regardless of external circumstance, there's an inextinguishable spark of divinity in everyone. I approach my work from this spiritual perspective because that's what gives it meaning for me. It's a form of communion, from my soul to the soul of my subjects; we're co-creators.”
