Kaitlyn Yates is a photographer based in the New York Metropolitan area. Her work catalogs slivers of the ordinary- namely moments in between, those that reflect joy, boredom and contentment. In her work, she seeks to define the meaning or emotive nature of an experience for those living within it, interconnectivity, and the intimacy a space can possess based on who has existed within it. She is largely inspired by the idea of the fugacious nature of existence, as well as her own intimate experience with grief and loss.
“I see the camera as a tool to use to both analyze and to memorialize. It is a vessel to capture the transitory, the everyday and the mundane, but the beauty and joy that is worth celebrating in the moments we’d later reflect on and realize their value, with or without the moment of loss."
