The artist is haley jane samuelson, the exhibit is called another room. http://www.housprojects.com/exhibitions/index.html
I love the emotion that this photo expresses. Again, a single man alone with his thoughts. The composition is nice as is the color, very vibrant and contrasty.

A Look @ Lighting

This is from a show in Shanghai. The photo is called "uprooted #12" from a series named "uprooted". That title adds many things to the narrative of this image. Love the humanity. The image appears to be a document to time and space yet upon closer inspection as surrealist quality pervades. The lighting is translucent, magical and seems optically misleading. The pattern and texture of the light lend to that surreal quality, unable to discern if it is real or imposed.

Love this. It's from a show in the Netherlands called: Human Conditions. The utter unmasked humanity in this moment blows me away. The side, artificial lighting, I think, helps set the tone for setting (i.e. indoor, institutional feel) and the focal point (the kiss and the boys arm are the most well lit, indicating a reference to who this boy is, meaning sick, and who that man is, meaning the doctor, and the moment that they are sharing together)
