Expiration | Inspiration

  • Photographer
    Richard Pilnick, United Kingdom
  • Prize
    Honorable Mention

This collection explores the notion of what is real, for if we see, is it really there..? The chemicals have dried in the pods, thus exposing only part of the image. A photographic representation of our Matrix, or more rather, a glitch in our Matrix, showing how reality is vailed by our own perception and preconceived notion of reality. This vailed perception also represents the struggles within the mind, that of self acceptance and of questioning our place in this world. From these expired Polaroid Type55, may we draw inspiration with seeing, as if we’ve opened our eyes for the first time.
