Poetics Concept: Clamp

My object is a clamp and my project's theme is based off of the idea of textures. My series includes visually cohesive pictures of the different types of textures, like scratchy, bruised, spotted, wrinkly, or empty. My theme in turn is of a darker sort because of the intrinsic quality of texture and harder visuals. I tried to create photos that made the viewer look for a long time and be interested or intrigued by each picture's texture. The series is cohesive and connected through the way each photo feels and looks, evoking how one can imagine each image would feel.
