Coney Island, NYC: Photographer Ellen Fisch Reclaims the Boardwalk


New York City, NY (PRWEB) June 05, 2012

Coney Island, located in Brooklyn, NYC has long been celebrated as an iconic and historic cultural inspiration for artists, writers and musicians. Recently, Photographer Ellen Fisch, a Brooklyn NY native, focused her lens on the beach community where she spent much of her childhood. Fisch uses a unique architectural approach in her photography of the seaside community that brings a fresh view of the area.

Photographer Ellen Fisch is often drawn back to Coney Island where she had photographed the area as a child with her first Brownie Camera. While traveling to Coney Island over the years, the photographer observed that the area had declined in its allure for New Yorkers and tourists living outside of Brooklyn. However, in the last decade the beach community has been infused with new life by the arrival of the baseball team: Brooklyn Cyclones. Yet, many of the old temptations remain, such as Nathans Famous Hot Dogs, the Cyclone Rollercoaster and the Wonder Wheel. Throughout her trips to southern Brooklyn, Fisch always found Coney Island a sensory feast.

Situated on the Atlantic Ocean, Coney Island has long offered a chance for New Yorkers to enjoy the sea air, amusements and rides, flavorful street food, salt water bathing and strolls on the Boardwalk. Ellen Fisch captures the flavor, history and charm of Coney Island with her black and white, sepia and muted color architectural photographs. The structural element of the iconic rides, such as the Cyclone and the Wonder Wheel add to the architectural appeal of Coney Island for Fisch whose photographic focus is on elements of architecture.

Coney Island is a 4 mile peninsula and the boardwalk provides a path that connects some of its various sections. The boardwalk itself is a prime attraction that offers a place to enjoy the sea air and magnificent view of the Atlantic Ocean. Moreover, fishing, bicycle riding, skating and other leisure activities all take place on the slatted wooden strip that is suspended above the beach. The boardwalk is an integral part of Coney Island. Fischs recent photographs of Coney Island include many views of the boardwalk as an architectural structure in the landscape.

Coney Island is historically and animatedly colorful; therefore, I included photographs in a subtle palette along with my black and white and sepia photography, says Ellen Fisch. Furthermore, Fischs artistic photographic technique evokes fine art qualities in her work that recall the Coney Island paintings of the late 1800s and early 1900s.

Upon completing the series, Fisch transformed her images by printing the photographs on aluminum to give a luster to her photographs that affect the shine and glow of sea and sky of Coney Island. When the pieces were completed, the images radiated history and beauty through the medium. By chance, Ellen Fisch learned that slats of the original Coney Island boardwalk were available. I knew that wonderful memories would be restored by my photographing iconic Coney Island and including actual boardwalk in the completed works, says Fisch. She had the slats repurposed into frames with a Belgium Linen inset that replicate the color and fine texture of sand. The aluminum images are floated on the linen which is surrounded by the boardwalk slat frames to present a complete Coney Island experience.

Reclaiming the NYC Coney Island boardwalk as frames for my photographs of Coney Island emphasizes the Brooklyn communitys history and enhances my photographic art, says Ellen Fisch.

About the Photographer:

Ellen Fisch is a New York based photographer specializing in black and white and sepia architectural photography that is artistically expressive, historically relevant and timeless.
