February's Artist

Glenn Robelen

India is the land of overcrowded cities, wandering cows, pollution galore and indescribable aromas - but until you go to India, and experience its culture and its people, there is no way to understand this country of great vibrancy. To know India is to have a love-hate relationship with it.

Photographing people, cultures and events throughout the world comes under many labels - such as Documentary Photography and Photojournalism. Regardless of the label, it is an art of presenting people and circumstances together in an image, creating an emotional bond while creating an introspective relationship to the scene.

As in the images presented, nothing is more captivating than the eyes of a subject. The innocence of the children is clear as you walk through the streets, while the economical dissonance is constant force and, at times, is overpowering.

Glenn Robelen has traveled the world in order to capture the faces and culture of far away places, and to provide this experience to others. His goal is to make the audience ponder and question the worls in which we live - and our place in it.
