Since 2011, Zun Lee has embedded himself in the lives of African American families, many of them from the Bronx and Harlem, photographing the intimate details of their everyday lives. Father Figure: Exploring Alternate Notions of Black Fatherhood brings into focus the narratives of real fathers as caretakers, interrogating and dispelling stereotypes of Black masculinity and absent fathers.
