New York based photographer Niki Polyocan captures the transient moments of city life in her emotive photographs, the surfaces of which are simultaneously luminous and velvety. Working exclusively with film, Polyocan remains loyal to traditional photographic processes, lending her works a poignant sense of nostalgia.

Perceptively documenting passing moments with sensitivity, Polyocan elevates the everyday in her graphic, striking compositions. Not candid but not staged, figures make eye contact with the camera, confronting and embracing their role as subject. The resulting images feel like an earnest glimpse of truth; quotidian moments transformed into something extraordinary.
