downtownfrombehind (DFB) is a photographic series capturing subjects riding their bike from behind on some 200+ streets, avenues and lanes below 14th street in New York City.

The result is an environmental portrait for each street and subject with a goal to highlight a set of individuals, emerging and established, each uniquely contributing; culturally, socially and physically, to make this part of the city what it is today.

The project has been widely covered in the press, from New York Times, Huffington Post, Coolhunting, Vogue, Nylon Magazine and many blogs (thankyou).

Subjects photographed to date include industrial designers, architects, creative directors, restauranteurs, entrepreneurs, hoteliers, artists and academics.

AVENUE C.

AVENUE C, Lindsay Sanwald is Idgy Dean for Downtownfrombehind.  

Sassy and electric Lindsay Sanwald is Idgy Dean.  Her solo music project (reminiscent of artists like Juanna Molina and Animal Collective) turns out haunted rhythm-driven songs, recorded and produced alone at home, and then looped live on stage.  Fall in love with Bang Bang Sun and check to see what venue she might be playing at next. DFB.
