Lauren Renner


The blog name is Feature Shoot with a font design very connected to today's contemporary artistic style. The journalist who posted the artist information and pictures is named Elyssa Goodman. The design of the blog is very inviting for the visitors allowing easy access to current and popular post. The layout emphasizes in the photos and not so much in the rhetorical aspect of the photo. This allows the viewer to concentrate in the photo and draw his/her conclusion without intervention of opinionated critics. The blog in general gives raw images of the real human condition by exposing what we sometimes oversee. Elyssa Goodman wrote the specific article from which I capture this image of two gay men. The photographer is Lauren Renner and her objective was to explore self-identity with stereotype. All her models where written stereotypes that they have been subject to. I was interested in this article because it is the first of its kind that I have seen that exposes stereotypes at its most inmate form. I love the photographer's idea of writing down stereotypes on its models skin representing what they have internalize as their truth. To read more about this blog and article click here
