| My work explores the opposite of 'home'. I have been documenting deserted houses, looking at misplaced objects and have eventually taken the idea of rearrangement to create portraits. For the series, I have removed my subjects from their original contexts to the dwellings of others. The unusual engagements between their bodies and the new environments reflect the unhomely experience of displacement. By imposing a new order on things in my photographs, I wish to question the notion of belonging and to illustrate the performance of identity. |
