The title ‘In My Room’ perhaps suggests a series of photos of intimate friends, lovers, family members or otherwise personal relations. However, looking at the images we realize the intent to hide any relationship between photographer and subject. The people in the photographs stand in front of a white background, illuminated to make their features, their contours clearly visible. The images are arranged by separating images of the lower and the upper body. Although the photographs of the upper body do focus on the face and thereby seemingly earn the label ‘portrait photography’, the photographs of the lower body give a more enigmatic impression as they intentionally omit certain attributes. - From text by Mika Kobayashi
