I have decided that I’m going to present my images in the format of a typography. since a lot of my images in the first photo-shoot are very similar in composition and feature the same subject, I believe that a typology would be a good way of presenting my images and thus I will adapt my future photo-shoots for the project to the format of a typology.

One of the most notable photographers in typologies are Brend and Hilla Becher while there work doesn’t thematically link to mine as they photographed buildings as opposed to possessions however I believe that their work is some of the best examples of typologies available.

Some other examples of photographers that have used typologies as a form of presentation for their work include Zhao Xiaomeng, his work with typologies is also more closely related to mine as it deals with possessions in the format of a typology.

I believe that typologies give the photographer the freedom to use a variety of images which is especially helpful if you believe that there isn’t a single image that could properly represent the best of the photo-shoot and convey the message of the photo-shoot properly.

Idris Kahn experimented with the photos of Bernd and Hilla Becher and presented his own take on the ideas of typologies. The images are essentially multiple exposures overlayed over each other. Since the images all come from the same typology they are very similarly composed and thus give an interesting effect with a Gaussian distribution.
