I had the pleasure to meet documentary photographer, Alyssa Schukar on my last visit to Chicago when I was teaching a workshop for Filter Photo. Alyssa is a devoted observer who has traveled the globe to tell her stories and has the ability to put significant issues into context. One of her current project, The Most Industrialized City, is closer to home. Her photographs weave daily life with daily concern, showing us a vibrant community living in a toxic environment.
The residents of Marktown, a historic district ringed by industrial behemoths in East Chicago, Ind., are trying to stay put, relying on each other in the face of change.
The houses of Marktown were not exactly what Alyssa Schukar expected to find when she moved to Chicago and started looking for a community project. In an industrial corner of East Chicago, Ind., she came across a tiny, nearly century-old community of narrow streets with gable-roofed homes whose windows faced gardens.
