Jordana Zeldin's photographs of New York City Subway advertisements that have been altered, vandalized or completely ripped-apart by anonymous passengers chronicle an ever-changing underground landscape that is at once playful, sexually-charged, angry and often unexpectedly quite beautiful. Transformed by Sharpie® pens and bits of tape, the frequently garish billboards by which millions of City commuters are surrounded every day become social and historical documents, fleeting evidence of the moment in which someone fulfilled the impulse to make a personal conviction public.
