Getting Older
”Getting Older” is a photo series that focuses on the road to adulthood and leaving adolescence. The series is used to highlight the emotions and feelings that come along with this change. Throughout the series, there are many conceptual themes of isolation, the feeling of being overwhelmed, and depression. Influences on this series were works that focused on these conceptual themes of isolation, disorientation, and loneliness from photographers such as Seb Agnew, Luc Kordas, Gabriel Isak, and John William Keedy. Using these inspirations, the photos consist of high-intensity or deserted environments with the subject. The overall focus of the series is to communicate through the lens the feelings of being alone, confused, overwhelmed, and having heavy expectations, just as adulthood is beginning.
