Puddles in the City
This series of 5 images taking the form of digital prints are titled Puddles in the city.
These images depict a moment in time where street performers are captured when they are no longer performing. The role of the Performer/ Entertainer fascinates me. Taking on a different persona , the entertainer is dressed as a character and becomes an object of attraction.
Photographed across busy cities (London, Paris, New york), these almost cinematic images are presented in a dark space/room , suspended at various angles , catching the subtle reflections of the viewers within the room.The reflectiveness of the dark city cape mimics that of the puddles of water in the city. The viewer is hence taking on the role as a spectator in this work , interacting with the space and navigating through the pieces. Their response and level of engagement with the work is pertinent: whether to identify and read into the meaning of the reflections or to not recognize their reflections at all.
