"The door is locked on this phone box because people from the psychiatric retreat up the road would escape and hide in it. "
- Florence Bird
Florence was taught by students from BA Press & Editorial and Cartel Photos on a 12 week course at my campus, I wasn't one of the ones lucky enough to help teach the students, and I regret not taking the chance at the time, I was struggling with my own work so I chose to be a bit selfish.
Anyway I really think this girl has a natural talent with photography and story telling, I've been following her blog religiously since coming across it and loving all the work she produces. Her work has a real intimate feel to it, she uses different perspectives. She's obviously in a very experimental stage with photography at the moment, which is brilliant to see but I think she will be producing very good work for a time to come. Her captioning is brilliant, for example the image i included above is perfect. It tells the story, and leaves you wanting more. It gives a personal experience to the reader.
Anyways everyone should take a look at her work
