I have photographed the family portraits for Identity Project. Their living environment in these pictures such as paintings, sofa, bookcase can tell their identity and character. I wanted made the family identity so visual so I have chosen symmetrical place. Also I have asked them to dress up identically. Each family has their own style and discipline that is different to the others. Somehow I wanted to capture their unity as a family with humor.
I visited various educational institutions and witnessed dedicated people who have made a high level of commitment to their chosen area of study. I found that these places hold one thing in common – an atmosphere of serenity, combined with determination that removes them from the reality of the world outside. It is as if spending time on one subject enabled it to become a part of them.
The students must change their body and attitude and wear the uniform in their learning space – in order to survive in their chosen area of study. I have photographed the students in a hospital and schools of Ballet, Circus, Music and Judo.
