COLUMBIA ROAD: JOHANNA NEURATH

Looking online at one of my favorite websites: Dazed.com I found a photographer who creates very striking images with a plain and simple idea behind them. The photographer looks at a flower market and yet doesn't photograph the stalls of flowers but turns to the gutters to photographer them. These images could be interpreted as a question towards society and whether we need to evaluate what we find beautiful.
The images are very striking as the use of bright colours but the dark gloomy effect of the water show a very stark contrast. This means the colours pop and they become more intriguing.
I feel like the images can link to my coursework or Misplaced as they are in a misplaced area of land.
This has inspired me to look closer at what I'm photographing in future and look closer at the things we don't see. Looking back on these images I feel they look almost romantic in some way and change the way I think of them from when I first saw them.

Here are a few of her images:
