Orchard Beach: The Bronx Riviera
Although New Yorkâs Bronx is considered one of the most diverse communities in America out of which many subcultures originated, such as Hip Hop and Salsa, itâs still viewed as a no manâs land by many of the cityâs inhabitants. Perhaps it is a matter of simple geography that many refuse to venture to the northernmost of the cityâs five boroughs or, quite possibly, it may be the Boroughâs malevolent reputation lingering from its tumultuous past. From its earliest years, the Bronx has been a hotbed of immigrant working class families, but its image has largely been defined by the urban blight of the late 1960âs through to the 1980âs when arson, drug addiction and social neglect decimated many of its neighborhoods. For the families who have called this scarred landscape home, Orchard Beach, the only beach in the borough, was and remains a treasured respite from the sweltering confines of the concrete jungle. Built in the 1930s by urban planner Robert Moses, the beach carries the stigma as being one of the worst in New York and is commonly known as Horseshit Beach or Chocha Beach. I began shooting portraits of Orchard Beachâs summertime regulars in 2005 shortly after moving to New York, realizing that the stigma attached to this oasis was largely unjustified - I felt compelled to engage with this community of working class families and colorful characters. The photographs in âOrchard Beach â The Bronx Rivieraâ celebrate the pride and dignity of the beachâs visitors, working-class people. Immediately catching the viewerâs eye is the extravagant style of many of the photographsâ subjects â a quest for identity and sense of belonging. Some individuals carry scars and markings that hint to their own personal histories, which often reflect the complex history of the borough itself. Within the gaze of those portrayed we see a community standing in defiance of popular opinion. The six years I spent photographing Orchard Beach have not only given me the time and space to reflect on the importance of family and community, but also a sense of belonging and purpose. After having experienced the most profound grief when my older brother was brutally murdered, photography has not only offered me an opportunity to give a voice to a community often misunderstood but also a means of healing from the loss experienced. â Wayne Lawrence / INSTITUTE

"weird"
From Old English wyrd âfate, destinyâ, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *wert "to turn" (related to the word "versus", meaning "turned against"). The literal meaning is something like, "what will become" and in German, this root forms the future tense (sie wird trinken âshe will drinkâ).
The modern sense of weird developed from the use of âThe Weird Sistersâ, the goddesses who controlled human destiny. They were odd in appearance, as in âMacbeth,â which led to the meaning âodd-lookingâ. Source: etymonline.com
