LIVING(ROOMS)

Street photography is peculiar; I spent day after day wandering streets and alleys in various cities in search of people I could relate to or find interesting. Somedays were obviously more fruitful than others but the more individuals I’d encounter, the more I began to wonder if the people I’d met on the street are who they say they are. Of course, when we venture out into the world, we all put on some sort of armor or mask- our costumes for the world whether it’s our wardrobe or personality but there’s a separate version of us we become in the comfort of our own homes. That version of us is, to me, far more fascinating than the people we often pretend to be in the streets. Our relationships with and inside of our respective spaces is an intimate one that few but the ones we trust experience with us. “Living(Rooms)” is an exploration of those relationships and the people we truly are when we needn’t become anyone else for everyone else.
