Silent Reflections

The work, “Silent Reflections” consists of portraits taken in a charity gym whilst the subjects are training. The subjects do not train to be an athlete nor do they to compete in any event but only to keep focused on themselves and their future. The subjects represent prisoners who are on probation and ex-prisoners who, through the support of the local community and the community gym, they are able to keep focused on their own rehabilitation; to keep determined and dedicated for a better way of life.. I have used a consistent strategy of pushing the subjects out of context of “the gym” to allow the viewer to be engaged more with the subject and not what they are doing. In this way, I am trying to show the quietness, the stillness and loneliness of thought and determination within a subject.
