UNTITLED by Tad Wright

Mr. Wright is a visual and performing arts student at QCC. Mr. Wright states: "I also go by "BUUVINCHI", which is my stage name. I am a HIP-HOP artist out of Queens, NY. I have a hidden love for film and photography. I take a lot of my photos with my iphone when my Cannon t2i isn't available. There are so many cool editing apps on the phone that can make photos look really dope. I am inspired by NYC culture—I love being from NYC, and I think it is the greatest city in the world."
