State of the Arts Episode 9 Black Heritage Month Special! My podcast guest this week is photographer Wesley DeJesus Bruno. Originally from Puerto Rico, he is a senior photography student at SUNY Purchase and he also resides in the Bronx. As an ambitious Gordon Parks Scholarship recipient, Wesley focuses on photographing models of African descent, documenting the growth of his younger brother and capturing the Bronx culture on camera. His goals include photographing for Vogue one day, publishing books, having his work featured in galleries and revolutionizing the world of professional photography by making it more diverse. Tune in for a riveting talk on subjects ranging from authentic, cutting edge photography to being a photographer in these current times.
