Pierre Hauser has taken photos daily since 2009, primarily in his adopted hometown of New York, seeking to capture life's unseen beauty, to offer new angles on the much-photographed city. His subjects include layered puddle reflections, semi-abstract architectural patterns, quirky street scenes, and gritty finds. He has also completed two documentary projects. In Liberia, he photographed portraits of Ebola survivors and orphans, and in Bangalore, India, he chronicled the city's transformation into a global tech hub.

INDIA
From 2016 through 2019, I traveled periodically to India’s tech city of Bangalore to provide photographic documentation for a team of scholars studying the effects of the city’s rapid expansion - in particular, the resulting environmental degradation, loss of shared public space, and rampant real estate speculation.
LIBERIA
Beginning in 2009, I have regularly visited the West African nation of Liberia, and, in between meetings with local non-profits, I have captured glimpses of the faces and places of a country struggling to recover from the twin devastations of a 14-year Civil War (1989-2003) and the largest Ebola outbreak in history (2014-15).
