STOOP 55 would like to spotlight Michael McCoy, a United States Army veteran who treated his PTSD with photography. “During his hospitalization, he discovered documentary photography and from that moment on it has been instrumental in helping him deal with his struggle,” says artist Jamel Shabazz “Since picking up the camera he has amassed a compelling body of work, showcasing everything from portraits, families, fathers and daughters, church services, and political protest. In addition to working as a freelance photographer, Michael is dedicated to helping veterans like himself battle PTSD using photography as a platform for both creativity and inter-communication.” We salute you brother @michaelamccoyphotography #SALUTE #BlackSoilders #BlackVeterans #BlackPhotography #STOOP55 (at Brooklyn, New York)
