(Personal selection of images from 'The Quiet after the Storm: Croatia's displaced Serbs'. Please check more of his work for a better understanding of Ivor Prickett's work!)

Ivor Prickett is a photojournalist. He has most recently been working in Libya doing some incredible 6x6 work that goes beyond the typical war photographs, focusing more on the life that continues on behind battles. However, I think for all of his works, Prickett was able to follow the basic principles of storytelling through a series of subtle and atmospheric images. We get a somewhat clear understand of the people's situation and helplessness that leaves us, as viewers, caring and interested.

what an awesome photographer. Every single photo depicts a different style, which helps keep me interested since none of it is dull or repetitive. However, the first and last photo of your personal selection are kind of mind blowing, because the women (one young and one old) both hold the same exact pose, but everything else is so completely different.
ReplyDeleteI love it, thanks for sharing, Chloe :)
I have photo envy over the 2nd image from the top. I wish my name was behind that photo. The use of light in all these images is intriguing, notice where he positions his sitters in relationship to the light source.
