About the Work Created in celebration of the New York Knicks’ historic playoff run, this photograph captures the feeling shared by thousands of fans across the city. More than a sports image, it is a portrait of collective hope, anticipation, and the emotional rhythm of New York—a city that never stopped believing.
Artist’s Process This work is created entirely in-camera using multiple exposure. Two separate photographs are exposed onto the same frame inside the camera. No digital compositing, Photoshop, or generative AI is used. Every connection within the image exists exactly as it was captured. For Anton Kuzmin, multiple exposure is not a visual effect but a way of revealing emotional relationships between independent moments, allowing separate fragments of the city to become a single visual memory.
Series Part of Anton Kuzmin’s ongoing exploration of New York through in-camera multiple exposure. The series captures moments where the city’s visual landscape and collective emotions merge into a single image, preserving not only what happened, but how it felt.
