City Center/No Identity? .. (Shutter speed/ Colour experimenting)

-Artist Study: Philip Lorca Dicorcia


Dicorcia has a very cinematic approach to photography, and tends to use domestic settings in much of his photography. Alot of his work is naturalistic, where certain projects are set up for natural reaction (regarding the trip wire experiment shooting people coming back from work), and alot is also set up. Regardless, his photography is indeed very powerful, and 'morish' to look at. His book 'Thousand' has some great photography and can be studied and looked at over and over again. I was attracted to his cinematic and narrative style of photography, where I have tryed to reenact the first example of his i have displayed, this can be found in a newer post within the blog, im sure it wont be too hard to spot, and i have tweaked it in a way to show more of an isolated environment.
