Beschreibung:
Ida Taavitsainen was born in 1987 in Helsinki and is currently working on her master's degree in photography at the Royal College of Art, London. She prefers analog photography--color and black-and-white--and hand-prints most of her work in the darkroom.
The Memory of My Wardrobe, a project by Finnish photographer Ida Taavitsainen, explores the personal narratives given to clothing inherited or simply handed down to her by her family. Over the years, she acquired a lot of clothes, many once belonging to people she never knew--her great-great-grandmother, for instance--but all with family ties. The clothes interested her: What were their histories? What had they gone through before she started wearing them? What stories do a ripped seam or the faded color of a fabric tell? Here, her carefully composed still-life photographs and brief anecdotes tell a charming tale--a family album full of stories but without people.
