Street Culture is a stunning collection of photographs representing
women and men of color who exhibit a unique style.
Seleen Saleh's photographs reveal individuality, fearlessness, and
creativity in the most vibrant beings who collectively represent street
style. This style is as varied as the people; it is a personal
expression that changes day to day. It is an expression of a person's
culture, mood, influences, and aesthetics. Street style originated in
the street where top designers look for inspiration for their next
collections. The book preserves the integrity of street style and
features some of the muses that have been forgotten or were never
acknowledged.
In the book Seleen combines photographs from her work at Essence
Magazine with new images of jaw-dropping, creative and colorful moments.
As a lover of fashion, art, and people, Seleen brings out the authentic
nature of these known and unknown muses. Each person depicted here can
be considered a brilliant artist in his or her own right. These
portraits were taken in New York City--the perfect global
destination--diverse and open and where people are not afraid to tell
you who they are. There is an underfed audience for this book; the world
is waking up and wants to see more diversity and more eclectic styles.
