S. Carmody Photography

S. Carmody Photography hosts Distant Dreams, a collection of images from the travels of New Orleans - based photographer Shawn Escoffery. The exhibit comprises images taken over the past 3 years in countries such as Burma, India, Japan and South Africa. Escoffery's images possess not only dreamlike visual beauty, but also display an empathic sensitivity to his subjects. Photography for Escoffery is a conduit for self exploration as well as a means for understanding the world around him. A city planner by day, Escoffery implements his studies of urban development to provide a deeper framework for his photographic explorations. “Photography is a passion, a way to share life,” he says. In 2007, Escoffery was selected as an urban redevelopment fellow through the University of Pennsylvania and the Rockefeller Foundation to assist with redevelopment projects in New Orleans. He continues to work with community groups and volunteers at a number of community based organizations aimed at improving the lives of inner-city residents. Escoffery's ongoing photographic projects include “ARTitecture: the Beauty of the Built Environment, “Landscapes: the World's Backdrops,” and “Lives Forgotten: the Exploration of a Worldwide Epidemic – Homelessness.” To view these works visit www.shawnescoffery.com .
