WHO THE WILD THINGS ARE
Subject
Portraiture
Description
This book seeks to reinstall a child-like approach to identity, one that is fluid by nature. I am documenting young people in London who are reimagining outward expressions of identity. I asked my subjects to choose their own clothes the same way their inner-child would - so picking colour, texture and not thinking about how they would 'look'.
