PortraitureLaughter Project
My laughter project is the result of wanting to incorporate performance as a critical element of image taking, not by subject but by the photographer to create a unique and honest response from the subject. The project helped me develop my critical points in my artist manifesto, which I consider for every photo shoot I take part in. I started this project in my first year of university and photographed over 50 individuals over 4 weeks while performing a stand-up comedy routine in my student halls. This project helped me deconstruct my anxiety and develop my identity after leaving home for the first time.
