Portfolio ASMP NY

Preview

Most people look at work sites and machinery and see nothing more than concrete and steel. Stephen Mallon looks at them and sees both a surreal beauty and the wonder of their engineering. He has traveled from Africa to Brazil searching out artificial landscapes and industrial footprints. His work has been exhibited widely from Rome to New York and has been commissioned by a wide range of clients, including The New York Times, Sunday London Times, The Wall Street Journal, Fortune, and MAYTAG. 

His portfolios:

. Flight 1549
It is very difficult to encapsulate the events that happened during and following the crash of flight 1549, but Stephen Mallon’s large-scale photographs, taken during the salvage of the fuselage and engine, impart a physicality and scale to these incomprehensible occurrences. Mallon’s photos present us with the aftermath of this disaster and remind us how it was averted despite nearly unbeatable odds through the mastery and bravery of the pilot and crew.

. Next Stop Atlantic
Seeing these massive mechanisms being tossed into the ocean like a toy in the bathtub is a ping in my heart. I have always been attached to these machines, their surreal beauty integrated into their functional engineering At first I was stunned the moments of violent recycling, watching the water quickly adapt to its new underwater houses. After being pushed and stacked like a sardine in these subways cars over the past decade, it is nice to see the sardine actually getting one of these as its new steel condo. 

Nominated by Reviewers: Marina Press, Associate Gallery Director and Independent Curator, Bernarducci MeiselPoets & Artists and Mia Tramz, Associate Photo Editor, TIME.com
