The Outlaw Instagrammers' urban performance photography

Copyright Humza Deas

Seventeen-year old skater Humza Deas shares his urban experiences in New York via Instagram. Armed with a camera, the young urban explorer climbs sky-scrapers, advertisement-boards and bridges to discover unusual, spectacular visionary angles. 

The Outlaw Instagrammers group consists of street photographers who dedicate themselves to the playful exploration of the urban air. 
Its members try to outdo each other by getting the most likes on their startling photographs, to achieve the attribution of the letter K when their followers exceed 10.000. Last Suspect and Humza Deas are the group's leading photographers.

Competition is tough. When blabbermouth Deas told a reporter all there is to know about city climbing, he was confronted with hate and frustration from his colleagues. However this infamy led to publications in Complex and New York Magazine. 
Despite the negative exposure, the boy stays focused on aerial challenges and is planning to sell some of his work.
