“Urban Hues: SF09”

By nikolas

While in San Francisco to view the Warhol exhibit in May, I was on such a creative high that everything around me became potential for art.

Over the course of the weekend, I started shooting random bits of color that caught my eye throughout the city.

When I returned home, I realized that a new photographic series had developed: URBAN HUES
GG_URBANHUES-558

YELLOWTAG-558
“CHRONIC”
ORANGE BOWL-558
“THIRSTY DOG”
GRATE-558
“GRATE DRAIN”
DPT_558
“DEEPEETEE”
BARRICADE_558
“BARRICADE”
HORSEY-558
“GIDDYUP”
FOURSIXFIVE-558
“FOURSIXFIVE”
YELLOWDOTS-558
“CROSSWALK”
SUTTER STREET-558
“SUTTER STREET”
RED CUP-558
“EMPTY CUP”
STEEL GRIP-558
“BLUE STEEL”
RED GRAF-558
“RED TAG”
PLAYGROUND-558
“PLAYGROUND”
GANG_ACTIVITY_558
“GANG ACTIVITY”

While this collection, “SF09”, documents San Francisco, I plan to continue the series, shooting in different cities that I visit in the future.

Once the series expands, I’d love to produce a travel-themed exhibit in an unexpected, industrial location. I can also see these working as a greeting card series. Stay tuned for more on the evolution of “URBAN HUES”.

All photos are 20”x16” and available for purchase as framed or unframed prints. Please contact nikolasallenart@gmail.com for pricing and details.
