Two Latin girls pose in front of a wall of graffiti in Lynch Park in Brooklyn, New
York City. This project is a portrait of the inner city environment. It contains life,
great murals on the walls of buildings and people enjoying themselves. Today’s
inner city is a contradiction to main stream America’s gas station expressways
shopping centers and tract homes. Blacks, latins and poor whites live there.”
