Artist Model- Domestic Photography

Laura Letinsky

I Did Not Remember I Had Forgotten & Morning and Menlancholia series.

Her work alludes to human presence without including any actual figures. I really like how this is similar to our brief of photographing a ritual.



I particularly like the shadows reflected from the objects in the photograph against the wall in the background.



This image shows the pre-presence of humans having being involved/present in the space shown. I found in all the messiness of the food left behind the photograph is extremely visually appealing and i really like it as a photograph.

This photograph reflects the presence of two people having eaten. I really like the deep red colour and the domestic idea portrayed through the photograph.

Below is the series Dinner for One, these photographic images address loneliness through the decline of the daily evening meal.

Her work has a contemporary look and shows how less can be more.
This domestic photography also shows the ritual of eating, and traces of a human presence. Furthermore I really like these images as though the photographs there is an idea being shown not told.

I really like the lightening in the top three images, it gives the feel of loneliness and emptiness and makes you hold a certain emotion towards these photos.

This photograph gives off such an emotional feel, i love how the emotion has been shown and not told.

This simple yet effective layout has created a lovely composition to view. I really like the simplicity of it.

Once again the lighting in this photograph is really nice and greatly adds to the image. Also the simple composition used creates such a powerful image.

I love this image, the boy completing his ritual of cleansing combined with the tones and shadows creates a extremely visually appealing photograph.
