Portrait Choice




Photos by Melissa Cantanese
Exhibited at the Chelsea Gallery in NY.


I found these images at the Chelsea Gallery in NY. These three photos were scattered among other photographs of nature and architecture. I have been exploring the way different photographers photograph portraits amd I was really intrigued by the point of view she took with these ones. All the portraits she displayed showed no faces. I enjoyed that, I felt like I could put myself into this photo and make it about me. I didn't have to make up a life scenario for someone I didn't know, I could be me in these photographs and that drew me into reading what was around the figure and what surrounding they/I encountered.
