Agglomerative Narrative Series








Within this series I wanted to objectify materialistic wealth and the temporal existence of people within this world. I employed the use of natural lighting and saturated colors. The temporal state of existent light and its application with the models and the ambiance reinforce the idea of the transitory condition of humanity. They are a portrayal and study of the relationship between gluttony and materialism: the gluttonous acquisition of materials.
The portraits were executed with extremely long exposures emphasizing the movement of the models, which in turn increase the intemperate character of gluttony and materialism. The viewer is engulfed by the tight, confined spaces. This series is to construct the idea that people are temporal, but the objects that people acquire exist beyond their time. People become ghosts of their own materials.
