Overlooked New York

Overlooked New York is a whimsical portrait project by Zina Saunders, who has compiled her illustrations of some of the most interesting unknown people in New York into a fascinating cast of characters. As illustrated above, “Whitney, age 36, has found his home behind the buttons and hooks of century-old clothing, whose constriction he finds strangely liberating.”
