Artist Models

Stephen Shores explores or describes the physical and formal attribrutes of his photographic prints.

Shores intent is aimed at those artists, students, and advocates of photography who remain deeply impassioned by the creative apprehensions of the photograph itself.

Anyway below is the photography from his book which i feel works as artist models for my series....

Jan Groover, Untitled, 1985

The photograph above has depth of field within the image, i feel that this relates to my series as the majority of my photos have the main image in focus while the rest isn't and is pushed into the background.

Thomas Annan, "Close, No. 61 Saltmarket"

This photograph has the same sense of looking down something, creating length and depth to the image, this is the case in several of my photographs in my final and therefore there are similar elements to the photography.

Walker Evans, "Gas, Station, Reedsville, West Virgina, 1936"

This image of the pole in the foreground shares similar elements with my series however the rest of this image consists of a street and shop whereas mine are simply of close-ups of certain objects showing detail and surfaces of them.

Oliver Musovik, "Neighbours", 1999

He documents places and spaces that shape identity, he photographs the traces that shape his neighbourhood, and uses the physical environment also to show this, and therefore has similarities with my series.
