Gregory Halpern was born and raised in Buffalo, New York, and has captured moments in and around his hometown over the years. “What’s interesting to me about the world is its chaos and contradictions, the way opposites can be so beautiful in relation to each other.” Scenes like the above, picturing a blossoming tree full of berries growing over a barbed, chainlink fence, is one of many examples of how Halpern’s gaze captures beauty in the everyday and creates harmony in the contrasts of his surroundings.
