Edits:

These photos were taken in the style of Rotimi Fani-Kayode. I edited them by making them black and white and adjusting the levels creating more contrasts between the tones and shades. These images create meaning as they represent black lives being silenced and controlled by society. It shows how white lives can be perceived as more valuable. This can highlight and signal the change that needs to be made so that all lives are viewed as equal. The plain background in these images allows the viewer to focus on the subjects with no distractions. It creates an intense focussed image that draws you in.
