Sunday 3/1 Entry





Adrian Fish

Fish's most acclaimed project is entitled "Staged", where she photographs completely empty theaters and concert halls. These vibrant rooms are contrasted by the lack of movement and activity within them. The viewer is fully aware of what should be, but is left wondering what significance the place holds once "what should be" isn't.

Although this series most closely resembles mine, all of her work is relevant to my concept. Her even her portraiture features forced solitude, pushing the bounds of anonymity and one's singular role within an environment. Both of the ideas I have always played with in my own work, and hope to continue them within my current project.
