Hone your street photography skills with a hands-on photo walk across the Brooklyn Bridge! In this image making activity, we will meet at ICP on the Lower East Side and walk downtown across the Brooklyn Bridge, ending at Photoville in Emily Warren Roebling Plaza. While learning basic photographic techniques, participants will use whatever image making device they have (smartphone, iPad, camera, etc.) to document what stands out most to them. The photo walk will last approximately 2 hours and is led by ICP alumni Lucia Buricelli whose work can be seen on view at Photoville this year, and ICP Faculty Hannah La Follette Ryan.
Lucia Buricelli’s work explores the tangled dynamics of consumerism in New York City. Her photography immerses viewers in a vivid, chaotic urban landscape where streets, markets, and malls become theatrical stages for the drama of consumption. Buricelli’s lens reveals a city shaped by both the pursuit of bargains and the spectacle of luxury—where people wander in search of meaning, animals adapt to survive, and malls mimic entire cities.
Hannah La Follette Ryan is a Brooklyn-based photographer from Amherst, MA. She graduated from Vassar College in 2014. She started her @subwayhands Instagram project in 2015, inspired by countless hours spent in transit to her day job as a nanny. Her work has since appeared in the New Yorker, New York Times, New York Magazine, Lonely Planet, The Nation, Interview Magazine and elsewhere.

The International Center of Photography (ICP) is the world’s leading institution dedicated to photography and visual culture. Cornell Capa founded ICP in 1974 to champion “concerned photography” — socially and politically minded images that can educate and change the world. Through our exhibitions, education programs, community outreach, and public programs, ICP offers an open forum for dialogue about the power of the image.
