“The Lonely Astronaut”: Melancholy Photography Series by Karen Jerzyk

According to a photographer Karen Jerzyk: “As a part of her “The Lonely Astronaut” photographic series (started in 2017), I used the empty New York City streets as a futuristic dystopian backdrop to accompany a single lone astronaut during the covid pandemic. Using my friend’s 12-year-old daughter, Kiera, in the astronaut suit, I visited otherwise extremely populated areas like Times Square, The Brooklyn Bridge, and Chinatown.”
