Bedstuy Blue is a personal documentary project that delves into the lives of the Bedford-Stuyvesant community in Brooklyn, where I had the privilege of living from 2015 to 2017. This series engages with and investigates the impacts of gentrification—a process in which the influx of more affluent residents and businesses leads to the transformation and often displacement of long-standing communities.
Through personal interviews and observations, the project captures how gentrification reshaped the neighborhood and its essence, seeking to understand the perspectives of residents experiencing these changes.
