Bob Krasner has spent years training his eye to resist the obvious. While the city screams for attention, his photography work insists on quiet. The result is a photographic practice rooted in restraint, patience, and a near-radical commitment to looking slowly.

When we were coming up with the concept for our original show, we first came to the streets of New York City where I hid in a secret confession booth we set up in Midtown and asked women what they really want.

The ritual is simple and extremely New York: head to the Broadway plazas between 45th and 47th Street, grab a colorful slip of paper, write down your 2026 wish and stick it to the wall. Every piece collected in person or online before December 29 gets printed onto real confetti that will be part of the roughly 3,000 pounds released on New Year's Eve. (That's about the weight of a small car, reborn as aspirations, for reference.)
