Artist Research - Sally Mann

When working in the darkroom printing this picture I immediately thought about this image by Sally Mann. The way that the male figures head is hidden in the shadows of the doorway. Although it wasn't my intention to do this, I found it quite strange the resemblance to the Sally Mann image. 

1983-1985

                            



As Sally Mann is one of my favorite photographers I think maybe there was a subconscious influence by her in this image. However I don’t think it works for this project, it’s a bit too dark and disturbing. I think I might revisit this and try and create an image with a bit more light in the subjects face.
