Photography and Perception
Photographers have power in the form of how they represent their subjects. This is particularly prevalent in documentary and street photography, as viewers often trust photographers and therefore expect a candid scene. In this series of short videos I explore ways the ways in which prominent photographers have used this power, and the surrounding discourse. Topics covered in the videos include digital manipulation, misrepresentation, and dishonesty - they are all linked together by having something to say about altering perception, and how this can be violent.
