Sociologist and Photographer Camilo José Vergara
New York Belongs to Me, and I Belong to New York
Camilo José Vergara is a New York-based sociologist and photographer who photographs the same urban locations over time to document changing communities. Before participating in a panel on how people reinvent spaces, he confessed in the Zócalo green room that although he was born in Chile and has lived and worked all over the U.S. and the world, he can’t imagine living anywhere but New York.
