caborca AFTER Hamlet
Caborca After Shakespeare's Hamlet is a series made in collaboration with @caborcanyc theatre company. These portraits were captured after a performance of their take on the play. For the series actors (and the director) were required to choose five words from any of their character's speeches in the play. I said these words out loud one at a time and photographed their reactions.
The aim of this portrait series is to quench my obsession with exertion and recuperation- a journey that speaks loads without having to push the performer/subject to the brink of falsehood. Being genuine is not a choice but an inevitability.
