I am interested in both expressive abstract photography and studio portraiture. In this body of work I aimed to use a combination of studio portrait photography and abstract photographic composites to portray personal expression. I interviewed the subject of each portrait to find something that is meaningful to them personally and created an abstract based off of that interview. Each abstract has a concept it is trying to express and some of them even depict an object that is personally meaningful to the subject of the portrait above.born digitalStudent worksengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
