'Attachments' is part of
a collection of portraits used by people to represent themselves when
replying to
personals
ads on the internet. Each image is highly considered in order to convey
very specific
details
about the sender. Aspects such as pose, location and symbolism all combine
to present the viewer
with far
more information than perhaps detected upon first glance. Through image
choice, the respondants
can influence
how they are perceived, regardless of how accurate or truthful that
perception may be. The
resulting
photographs are eclectic, insightful and often humourous.
My intention is to explore the possibility of turning this ongoing project
into published book format.
