Growing Up

The title of this blog, Growing Up, says it all. Living at opposite ends of the globe, photographers Patrick Tsai (Japan) and Coley Brown (New York) collaborate to create a collection of documentary images through the eyes of a learner-- it's a candid discovery of the world.






"Growing Up was spurred by a spontaneous scene we witnessed together at Shibuya station in Tokyo, Japan- where two high school girls were leaning against a wall, one was crying while the other was trying to comfort her. Even though they were surrounded by a city of millions, they were the only ones that existed for that brief moment. The photograph we took of them that day eventually became the genesis of our project, a project whose intention was to document and explore the inevitable process of growing up." -Brown and Tsai via Growing Up
