In this project we aim to combine two themes that we explore in our work; The fine line between reality and fantasy, documentary and staged, the bizarre and the everyday.
Each shot will demonstrate a character full of personality and edge shot in an everyday location.
In addition to the characters the series will contain still life or landscape images with the same bizarre atmosphere. The duality between the two will emphasize the fine line between the staged and the documentary.
By placing the unique models in everyday situations, with “over the top” styling, we shine a light on the individual, create a proof of existence for the misfits, and normalize the bizarre.
The characters are casted from Zebedee Talent agency who represents people with disabilities and visual differences.
