This is one of my favorite pieces. Nicholas Nixon is an American based photographer, most famous for the use of the 8x10 inch view camera. In 1975, he created a project called The Brown Sisters. The series contains one portrait per year of four sisters, one of whom is Nixon's wife, always captured in the same left to right order. As of 2010 he is still contributing to the series and there are thirty-one portraits altogether. I think this is an amazing idea, especially the way he keeps them in the same positions throughout. This project has give me a few ideas on how to corporate this into my brief in regards to 24 hours & life.
Looking at various elements that take over peoples lives. Drugs, Alcohol, Sex, TV, Games them kind of things. Looking at possible capturing someone over 24 hours, each hour capturing their face after doing what they love??
