Still life documentary
Narelle Autio's The summer Of Us
Autio documents her findings, treating each with the same kind of attention to detail. Thoughtlessly discarded by its owner and then taken back to a studio and place the items against clean white background.
Her collection of images introduces to a continuum existing between manufactured and natural, between ocean and land. lost gloves in her description is that it is slowly grow to resemble five fingered sea creatures and turn to a lost sea creature then becomes a curious object washed up on the shore.
Autios appreciation for the power and poetic transformations of the ocean is portrayed in these images.
Think the idea behind this project of Autio's is showing how people have experiences on the beach and how these objects are used and what happens when left behind for a long time. I won't use this photographer as inspiration for my project but the idea is quite similar to mine in a way as my project based on experience of a student life wasting money on alcohol to reduce stress and catching up with friends and not feeling like they are losing a life due to work load and the fear of losing their friends due to lack of contact and meeting up.
