This series acknowledges the voyeuristic quality of the
camera and the viewer of an image. The
camera becomes an intrusion on private moments when used to commemorate them. In this series, a private moment between two
people is staged for the camera.
However, one of the subjects is staring awkwardly at the camera acknowledging
its intrusion on the scene. This causes
a disruption in the normal viewing experience.
A flash is used to light the scene for a direct and harsh lighting
source, mimicking the direct quality of the staring individual. The images are meant to be uncomfortable
causing an abrupt confrontation with the audience.
