Extensions of Being

Personality is continuously shaped through associations with extensions of our being - our job, family, lifestyle and posessions. These photographs were driven by a fascination about what our posessions say about our personality. I wanted to explore my subjects personality through their objects and the way they decorate their personal spaces with them. Is it necessary for a person to be in a portrait in order to gain a sense of who they are? Can we gain a semblance of this person through their objects? And if so, are our objects simply extensions of our being?

Below are the photographs one of of my subjects. This project included three intense explorations of three seperate people and their objects.
