The reason for me to include artist Lissa Rivera in my blog is to get some inspiration from her work. Her work speaks to me in a very special way, concept and aesthetic wise. The colour palette and the way her pictures are taken create a cinematic space to which I relate to.
About her: Lissa Rivera is a photographer and curator based in New York. Rivera is connecting to social history of photography and the evolution of identity, sexuality and gender in relationship to material culture. Beautiful Boy, Rivera’s latest project, reffers to identity on a personal level, focusing on her domestic partner as a muse.
In her description of the series Beautiful Boy, Rivera speaks about experimenting which formed itself into an addiction, which I am amazed by. My favourite part of the series is Chapter III, in which the locations create another amazing feeling added to it.
