It is said that a person's eyes are the windows to their soul. So why then did I
photograph people with
-
their eyes shut and what do the images reveal?
For three days I approached over 150 Ukrainians, and using sign language, asked if we could photograph
-
them...with their eyes shut. Their
reaction was one of great surprise and curiosity.
Most people have a "camera face." It's the look we put on when our picture is
being taken,
-
the face we want others to see. A mask.
So what do we reveal when we shut our eyes and take off the mask? I think
perhaps
-
the face is a mirror of the soul and it reveals a small glimpse of the
inner self.
