I had to pedal on my bicycle to get this flowers . I wanted to do something special for this little innocent baby. When, brought the flowers over to the memorial , they were the only real flowers. They thought they were fake ones. My voice broke and told them to get water and a vase. Imagine that? They were so grateful and genuinely nice to me. |

As a photographer who has been documenting life in New York City's Inner City Neighborhoods for more than a decade, could not look away at this one. I always try to find the most endearing elements, costumes and traditions that each neighborhood has and knew someday like today was going to hit a wall. I do not want this senseless life going unnoticed , I felt like , I had to do something and as photographers part of our mission is to create awareness and communicate it . Being there was quite a devastating experience. Hold your children tight and loved ones tonight. There is a mother out there that cannot.
Here is a brief photography documentary of what truly felt being there when, decided to pay respects by bringing flowers and candles to the several street memorials set up in his memory. RIP Antiq. I hope they catch and bring to justice the coward who took his life.
Here is some links about Brownsville , the neiborhood that is considered the most dangerous area in NYC. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownsville,_Brooklyn
This is one of the several articles documenting the murder:

| Nuclear Family series- Beautiful Woman |
I love going to school Photography shows or like, I call it '' New Kids on the Block'' mostly because, there is always new energy, fresh and clever ways to interpretate and portray photography. In this case @ the Rhode Island School of Design Class of 2013 MFA Photography Show @ Clampart Gallery the stand out from several good new works was the Nuclear Series by Kevin Barton. You know is that good when Elizabeth Biondi and us truly were all over the work. Say no more. Go and see it . Only on display for 2 weeks! Good show Brian!
