David Moore

The Lisa and John Project by David Moore was based on a couple in the 1980's, it was called Pictures from the Real World. The project of work itself has no bearings on my research, however, during this project Moore created an installation of scale theatrical maquettes which showed the presence of the photographer within the scenes, this part of the project was called Oh My Days!.

This made a big influence on my project, although I have not made maquettes showing the presence of the photographer. Whilst my uncle took the instax mini polaroid photographs, I then photographed him taking those photographs so that is my interpretation of showing the presence of the photographer within the scene which, in this case, is my uncle.
