Complex Geometry (2022)

Monograph

Shot entirely by drone over the course of four seasons, Complex Geometry surveys Brooklyn’s public housing from above. The images translate architecture into pattern, proximity, and pause. The buildings form quiet diagrams of lived space, symmetrical, repeating, but never anonymous. It quietly engages the larger systems that shape big city life. An accompanying essay by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Trymaine Lee deepens the project’s historical and political resonance.

A Few Days and Nights (2021)

Monograph

Made in collaboration with the Museum of the City of New York, A Few Days and Nights is a quiet portrait of New York held in suspension. Shot during the first six months of the pandemic and accompanied by a short film of the same name, the work reflects on a city emptied of motion but charged with tension. Improvised signage, protest remnants, and silent corners become markers of a fragile pause caught between routine and uncertainty, woven into a visual poem about endurance and grace.

Positive Tracks (2025)

Shot in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, Positive Tracks traces the quiet work of conservationists and rangers dedicated to protecting the country’s mountain gorillas. It also listens to the stories of reformed poachers, local youth, and community leaders, each a vital thread in a network of renewal. Reid’s lens reveals the grace in change, where labor becomes stewardship and community emerges as a force of resilience and hope. The images show a human presence marked by care, endurance, and profound purpose. With a foreword by Kathy Chan, the book weaves advocacy and aesthetics, telling a delicate story of perseverance and responsibility.
