Identity

this was the final photographic outcome for my 'Home' project. i felt the sofa can act as a sort of microcosm of the house itself and the owner's personality; giving clues about taste, respect and habit; the misshapen cushions, wear & tare and stains from repetitive use and other remnants of the person such as the debris found behind and between the cushions. I took these photos just after moving in and was pretty horrified by what the previous tenants had left behind; banana skins, receipts, discarded documents, cigarette filters and coins weren't the half of it…it was interesting none the less, to learn a bit more about the goings on of the previous year.
