Big Apple Big Hope by PAIROJ PICHETMETAKUL (Pok)
"I was drawn into Pairoj’s work when I first saw his Abraham Lincoln portrait. It captured the soul of a man in what appears to be a time of hardship. I feel that a portrait should capture the depth and personality of the subject without the distortion of reality. In some of his portraits, he uses a lot of vibrant colors that pop out of the canvas like a layer of texture in different dimensions. Pairoj’s portraits provokes many questions about reality." -Ek Wongleecharoen
Pairoj is my friend and like my brother. He started his Big Apple Big Hope in NYC to help homeless people for their better life and unforgetting. He will bring food and money from donation and his own money to homeless people but not only giving them food and money. He even draw their portrait to catch people who walk pass by and stop to pay attention and help them too. From Pairoj warm heart, all artists around NYC are helping him to. Most of the photographer that help him shooting are street photographers and films.
