The Embrace

'The Embrace' is part of a larger series of photographs that document the relationship between myself and my partner. Through tableaux, we recreated everyday situations, gestures and conventions that are commonplace in such intimate relationships. By exploring the notion of “honesty” in photography, through visual means that depict a naturalness of action set against a stylized setting, I set out to create images that maintain the integrity of specific moments and dynamics within my relationship without being candid. I took inspiration from the film genre, Cinéma Vérité, rooted in authentic and “truthful” filmmaking. Rather than making a moving picture, I created stills by exploring the connection between photographs of a personal nature with individual memory and collectively identifiable themes.
