"I wanted to portray the raw depth of a person subtly, showing aspects of their essential nature," says Tiffany Tangen. "The dirt and feculence people pick up from the world, physically and metaphorically is shown by intensifying their insecurities through use of lighting to pick up every blemish on their face. Contrasting the clarity of imperfections, the lighting verges on commercialism whilst opposing the commercial expectations of perfection. The portraits are confrontational and challenge the viewer to confront the impurities in their own lives."
