NYC MOTORCYCLE CULTURE exclusive by x 🔬 link in bio
A photo documentary by Brian Pak-Hung Lau, an aspiring fashion photographer based in New York City, who started a personal photo project documenting the NYC motorcycle culture and scene. It is a project that began a year ago and he is still continuing.
It all began in his job working in the studio of his employer, Arthur Elgort, a fashion photographer, who happened to have photographed many subcultures. Elgort, Kurt Markus and Danny Lyon’s works very much influenced him to work on a photo project on the subculture of motorcycles, due to his fondness of the subject from a young age.
”I dedicated more than a year documenting every aspect of the culture, including the gatherings, the wrenchings, the camaraderie, the rides, and the wild side. Motorcycles are often viewed as a counterculture. The subjects I photograph are indeed quite rambunctious but in my photos, I aim to show a more humanized side of this culture.”
