Andrew Cenci
Part of the 2021 Louisville Photo Biennial
“A Walk in the Park” is a part of a large body of work that features black and white photographs made in the Shelby Park neighborhood of Louisville. This project started by accident, when I started shooting photos around the neighborhood to learn more about film photography. Six years and 1000 images later this body of work is as much a portrait of the neighborhood as it is exploration of my photographic interests and growth. The images represent the dreams and realities that a neighborhood holds, the natural beauty, and harsh reality of endings.
