  Elisabeth's gaze

  field_caption

  I made this portrait of Elisabeth Malgas at a local market in Soweto, Johannesburg. She had the most beautiful eyes I ever saw which resembled her personality. I passed the stand where she sold fruit a few times and after passing a 3rd time just right before it became embarrassing I asked her if I could make a picture of her. She didn't know what I was talking about because she only spoke the Xhosa language. A man who saw me making ridiculous hand gestures helped me out with the translation and after a bit explaining she happily agreed.

  A young man in Capri gazes pensively into my camera from behind a closed gate –– a metaphor of the mysterious island culture that is about to be unlocked.

  Neima of Fooshegu

  field_caption

  This portrait is just one of a series of portraits meant to celebrate the relationship between Louisville, Kentucky and her Sister City, Tamale, Ghana. They are also meant to chronicle my time spent in the Fooshegu Village located just outside of Tamale. These faces will always be in Fooshegu Village, as most will never travel outside of Tamale. By photographing the people of Fooshegu at extremely close range, I hope to establish a connection between viewer and Neima thus giving an intimate and humanistic portrayal of the people of Tamale, Ghana.

  The classic showman strikes a pose for my camera. He never repeats a single act or pose and spontaneously came up with something original for every individual he greets. I thought that was simply amazing. You too can meet the iconic character at Universal Studios Singapore!
