Description

Identity is often the result of our environment and social pressures and expectations. Often, to gain recognition, we loose ourselves. I was inspired by the work of Jean-Francois Lepage, a photographer who physically cuts, draws and deconstructs images, to present a brutally fragmented version of the original image. He says his work masks the sadness through overly bright colours, like a man in a mask showing himself. The tailoring is informed by recent images that surfaced about Japanese businessmen working 70hrs a week, falling asleep in the street, and somewhat become exhausted, fragile blurs of themselves.
