作为一名美术家和环境的视觉诠释者，我的摄影寻求一种创新的方法来捕捉建筑的美丽、锐利、静止和反射。我拍摄周围的形状和阴影，颠倒光与暗，突出颜色，并在我的数字调色板上调整对比度。我的作品巧妙地利用光线，创造出引人入胜的图像，突出自然元素与人造元素之间的对比。它邀请观众重新思考图像的背景和媒介，唤起文艺复兴时期的雕塑、现代平面设计和其他对我观点有影响的艺术时代。通过我的镜头，普通的场景被重新构架，以新的和具有挑战性的方式提醒观众它们的美丽。
As a fine artist and visual interpreter of environments, my photography seeks an innovative approach to capturing the beauty of architecture, sharpness, stillness, and reflections. I photograph the shapes and shadows around me, inverting light and dark, highlighting color, and shifting contrast on my digital palette. My work thoughtfully plays with light to create captivating images that highlight the juxtaposition between natural and man-made elements. It invites the viewer to reconsider the context and medium of its imagery, invoking Renaissance sculpture, modern graphic design, and other artistic eras that have influenced my point of view. Through my lens, ordinary scenes are reframed in a way that reminds the viewer of their beauty, unfolding in new and challenging ways.

约瑟夫·奥尼尔于1965年出生在纽约布鲁克林。他没有正式的艺术教育背景，但曾学习成为一名厨师。在成为厨师的过程中，他被迫养成以不同方式尝试、品尝和体验事物的习惯。烹饪中有真理：菜肴可以在盘子上美丽动人，但它必须是真实的、平衡的，并且不仅仅让眼睛满足。食物是短暂的，但如果经过深思熟虑，它的影响可能会远远超过初次体验的那一刻。
在过去的十年中，他一直是一名活跃的摄影师，但直到2012年才开始展出作品。由于是自学成才，他从不害怕尝试不同的技术。他的摄影作品最初受到尤金·阿特热的影响，后来则受到曼·雷的影响。他早期的摄影作品是对日常生活中被忽视事物的无计划记录，照相机让他能够捕捉这些瞬间，以便后来再次享受。从有意向摄影艺术发展以来，他在建筑抽象和人体研究方面进行了更多的实验。
他的作品在世界各地的众多群展和个展中展出，主要集中在纽约市和欧洲。他的作品在艺术期刊和艺术杂志上发表，以数字和印刷形式传播。他的作品在美国驻阿曼和拉脱维亚大使馆展出，并且是纽约市Pleiades画廊的活跃成员。
Joseph O’Neill was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1965. He has no formal education in art, but did study to become a chef. In the process of becoming a chef, he was forced to develop the habit of trying, tasting, and experiencing things in a different way. There is truth in cooking; something can be beautiful on the plate, but it has to be real, balanced, and satisfying to more than the eye. Food is ephemeral, but its impact – if it was thoughtfully conceived – has the potential to long outlast the moment in which it was first experienced. He has been an active photographer throughout the last decade, but only began exhibiting in 2012. Because he is self taught, he is never afraid to try different techniques. His photography has been influenced first by the works of Eugene Atget, and later by Man-Ray. His earlier work in photography was an unplanned documenting of things that are taken for granted as he passed them, but the camera allowed him to capture so that they could be enjoyed again later. Since deliberately moving toward photography as fine art, he has been experimenting more with architectural abstracts and nude studies. His work has appeared in numerous group and solo exhibitions around the world, predominately in New York City and Europe. Has been published in art journals, and art magazines, digitally and in print. His work is on display in the U.S. Embassies in Oman and Latvia, and is an active member of New York City’s, Pleiades Gallery
