Feeling Misplaced in society when reading a book.
I looked further into misplacement and found that one of the ways someone can become misplaced is through drug or alcohol abuse. This is a way in which you can change from being an average person in society to becoming misplaced and judged in such a harsh way. I began searching for images relating with the word alcohol and misplaced and could not find anything that was suited. I then came across Iara Di Stefano. This photographer straight away captured my attention and I started becoming absorbed in the images.
My own interpretation at the start was something linked with memories and how they can be forgotten or kept in some way. The image of the paper with the thought on it reminded me of how I could link this to misplacement. After taking my own interpretation I looked further into it and found that it was a collect of images from the girls past and she had frozen parts of her thoughts and physically chipped at the certain parts that she wanted. This makes the images unique and original but also shows how personal the whole collection of images is.
I really like the way the images are grainy and have a gloomy effect and really represent the true emotions.
I really want to recreate these images or take inspiration from them for future work.
