Project overview
My Space
The idea with My Space was to capture portraits of people that I know in their own working environment. Inspired by classical artists, such as Caravaggio, I set out to take unique portraits using a single flash to help the subject stand out. Many photographers overcomplicate the overall composition and incorporate too many techniques into their work, I wanted to capture nuances of the subject’s workspace, but with the emphasis on the person. With the intention of a darker background, the viewer is then drawn into what the sitter may do as a career. From the office homeworker, the young business entrepreneur, the hairdresser and the mechanic. I set out to tell a narrative about peoples’ occupations, but by including individuals in their working environment, the story is brought to life.
