Art critic Hilton Hamer once commented on Photographer Evelyn Hofer referring to her as “the most famous unknown photographer in America,” a title that seems to capture her whole artistic career. 

She is like a lonely explorer, catching unique pieces of memories belonging to cities in her photographs. Today, 14 years after her death, we can still feel a sense of transcendence and timelessness while viewing her work. 

Philadelphia-based artist Paul Santoleri creates psychedelic pieces of work that builds a variety of stories. Santoleri’s art is seen all over the world, from airports to parks to the sides of buildings. 

Many of these art installations return back to the artist’s view on the natural world, such as his mural “The Watcher,” located in Summit, New Jersey, that pictures a huge Heron that sits atop a hodgepodge of black and white lines that are made to resemble water. Santoleri uses acrylic paint, as well as cloth to create this mural.
