Hello Ladies!
I had such a great time
with all of you that came to the Open Mic on Friday! It was really great
seeing you all share your work and seeing what the other YAC groups
have been working on. I wanted to show you this contemporary British
photographer named Hannah Starkey. Take a look at these photos and think
about how they are similar or different to other photographer we have
looked at recently, in particular, Robert Frank in the Americans. Do you
think her photos are documentary style, set up, or both? Do you think
of a photograph differently when you know how is was made? What aspects
of identity do this images capture? It seems as if we've been given a
look into someone's personal moment or thought in many of these photos.
Do you think the people photographed can represent a larger feeling or
aspect of the communities they live in? If you were to stage a
photograph of yourself in attempt to describe your environment what
would it be? Lots to think about!
