Harry Griffin (Photography 2011) likes old movies. He’s inspired by the aesthetics and framing of cinematography, preferring to sequence his photographs from a cinematic point of view. While his pieces don’t evoke traditional narratives, bits of story line can be gathered from associations made between seemingly unrelated works. He's fascinated by “how disparate images work together in the world.”
By “objectifying people and subjectifying objects," Harry aims to distribute his spotlight evenly. Truly, in Harry’s work, plants and man-made structures command as much of our emotional attention as do his anonymous human subjects. His work simultaneously feels like narrow escape and inevitable aftermath.
