Since completing her studies at RISD, Kocol has been photographing the neighborhood in and around Somerville, Massachusetts. Using long exposures between daylight and evening, she transforms the mundane multifamily houses into magical settings. Her artist statement explains: “I seek to photograph things illuminated, beautiful, and sublime within my midst and to find stillness within a city in motion.”
