Matt Crump is a photographer with a very unique style. He changes his photos to give a colourful candy theme. His work intrigues me as it is very bright and vibrant although they are so simple. Matt’s signature use of surreal candy colors, minimalist compositions, iconic subjects, and offbeat humor landed him a spot on TIME Magazine’s Instagram 50. Crump publishes his work through Instagram because he feels it is a much more communal software, he also shares his fans work through the hashtag #candyminimal.

I like the fact that Crump’s work is very minimal but is still very aesthetically pleasing to the eye, it is almost like he is creating a fantasy world through the use of minimal composition and colour editing but in the real world, like escapism almost. I feel that i could recreate these photos in my own style to show a fantasy side to the island of Jersey.
