Newark Artist Collaboration x Audible Inc.

Photo documentation by Rachel Fawn Alban (2021-present)

Since 2021, I’ve had the privilege of documenting the Newark Artist Collaboration, an initiative by Audible Inc. that fosters opportunities for local artists to create installations and public artworks within Audible’s headquarters and throughout the arts and education district in downtown Newark, NJ.

Hired by Audible as the lead project photographer, my role includes a range of photography services including headshots, artist portraits, images of artists in action, works in progress, and completed art installations. My photos have been featured across various platforms, including web and social media, presentations, video b-roll, and large-scale printed ads at the Newark Broad Street Train Station.

It’s been an honor to connect with inspiring artists and contribute to documenting the artistic transformation of this vibrant city.
