Workers in New York is a contemporary acrylic painting on canvas that evokes the energy and intensity of Manhattan in the 1920s, a pivotal era of urban and industrial transformation. The composition features workers set against the backdrop of rising skyscrapers, symbols of ambition and modernity shaping the New York skyline. Through expressive forms and dynamic contrasts, the work highlights the collective strength and determination of those who helped build the city’s iconic architecture. Balancing historical reference with a contemporary pictorial language, the painting captures the tension between human labour and urban progress, paying tribute to the bold spirit and vitality of early twentieth-century New York.
