Robin Friend
Robin Friend is a photographer who explores the relationship that we as humans have with nature and how we are slowly chewing away at it. He looks to expose and examine the beauty in both nature and decay.
I find his work pleasant because of how simple it is and the amount of detail he put into his photos, he seems like he is using the world as his canvas and his photos as paintings. His images could seem to be lacking saturation but for a good reason, this is done to create a subtle image that looks and feels depressing but beautiful at the same time. |

In some of Robin’s photos you can see how he has use light to his advantage and how he using it in a way to draw our attention to small parts of his images that may otherwise be ignored. i find that doing this can transform an image and create a new focal point for the viewers to reference. the way in which he has composed his images is very appealing. I’m going to take inspiration from his work because i feel he speaks about destruction through his images which i want to try and do, to achieve this i will create something inspired by his subtle image and color.
