New York has changed dramatically after being seriously impacted by the pandemic. After seeing its streets emptied, its inhabitants have regained possession of public spaces, but everything is now very different. Living in the centre of Manhattan, Ruba Abu-Nimah, graphic designer and creative director working with some of the best-known fashion photographers, decided to document the city with her phone camera. From the calm to the hustle and bustle of the streets, first with shock then with fascination, she recorded the transformation of her city. Ruba Abu-Nimah accepted the invitation of MBAL and created an installation that follows the story of this unprecedented year, mixing her images with those of New York teenagers who explored the streets of the city with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
An interview with Ruba Abu-Nimah by Jo\u00ebl Vacheron was featured in the \u00abCould you talk about\u2026\u00bb series published by MBAL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
