These portraits by Mike Larremore capture people's different expressions and emotions. Each image is a collection of 16 photographs of the same person. The difference is that they all convey a different emotion. This is a similar idea to what we have been looking at, as we have also taken photographs of people displaying different ideas, such as: happy, sad, confused, and angry.
I like the way that Larremore has gone about this. he has displayed the images in a grid layout, so they are all of equal size. This gives it a clear and structured appearance. The images are all taken against a plain background, but the lighting means they are different colours at the edges, so the joins in the photographs can still be seen. I think this works so that it looks more like a collection rather than one image.
We need to think about the display for our pieces, so this is something which could help to give us more ideas on how to go about this.

I like the way that this clearly shows mini collections of people posing with different emotions. It would have been interesting to do something like this within our project if we had had more time as it would have needed to have been displayed on a very large scale due to the amount of different people that we have photographed. Its interesting to see how different photographers and artists have displayed their work in very different ways. Jessie
