New York City’s subway is more than just a way to get around—it’s a stage where millions of lives briefly cross paths every day. Photographer Chris Maliwat captures these fleeting connections in his stunning series Subwaygram, a collection of street portraits that reveal the heart and soul of the city underground.
Shot over four years—two before and two after the COVID-19 pandemic—Maliwat’s photos show how life, emotion, and community continued to pulse through New York’s subway system, even during times of change.

That little girl is a cutie! I love her ballet style slippers and that interesting neckline on the dress. I would have loved a dress like that at her age, although I was never that cute.

It's always amazing to me as to what some people think is attractive clothing, but that's why this world is so interesting. There are so many of us with differing ideas.

Probably a little of column A and a little of Column B. We'd all be better served if we took the Japanese approach to illness.
