UNIQUENESS...ISOLATES THE BRAVE
These images, although perfectly composed in black and white, give the viewer an immediate and strong sense of pathos. This feeling is the result of the obscure connection between the subject of the portrait and their environment. This association is immediately identifiable yet by the same token not easily understandable.
Following in the footsteps of Diane Arbus, the photographer however distinguishes himself from her as he uses a strong and repetitive compositional rigour. He concentrates on those persons that society considers different.
Considered disturbing and often negative because they are different, these individuals are photographed in a dark atmosphere, one that forces the viewer to immediately admit the prejudices they have against those that are considered unique. |
