connections a photographic series you’ll either love or hate
Last week I gave you s a sneak peek of a new series I have been working on. Today I thought I would share this new series with you. This is “connections” a photographic series.
Connections – feeling the love?
It has been an interesting journey creating this collection of images. I had a very strong theme of family in my mind when I went about photographing them. And although I am very fortunate to have a wonderful family and fantastic relationships, I still wanted to show that this connection can be tested and is not always as perfect as we want them to be.
My overall mood when I made these pieces was positive. However, when I finished them I was aware that the final effect was quite sad. I was interested to see how they came over to other people. And I was surprised and intrigued to discover that words like “creepy” “unsettling” and “unhappy” were used.
I am not discouraged by this feedback. In fact quite the opposite! I would rather provoke a negative emotion than no emotion at all.
Introducing “Connections” a new photographic series.
I’d love to know your thoughts on this new series. What does it say to you? what emotions do they evoke in you. I would be genuinely interested to find out.
