Photographs are an art form that is delicately structured to tell us something, a story, in every encounter. Regardless of being conscious or unconscious, photography gives meaning to itself. Although the photographer avoids attributing meaning, the viewer gives a meaning with his own connotations as he looks at the photograph. In its current form, photography can contain numerous stories in a single frame. In double exposure photos, photographers intertwine the emotions of two different moments. A completely different feeling and meaning come out with ingredients that do not resemble each other. Photographer Carmen Wayne combines portraits with frames from nature, hiding tiny, abandoned feelings together.
Carmen Wayne captures the nuances in memories.
Positioning herself as a model in some of the photos she took with double exposure; Carmen Wayne also reflects the reality of 2020 and the pandemic in her photographs. Some of her works trigger the emotions we all experience, and others trigger different feelings in everyone. As we see Carmen Wayne, her cat, and her friends in the photographs, we observe the nature of being human and humanity detached from nature at the same moment.
The photographs of Carmen Wayne, who took 35mm analog photographs, reflect indescribable but powerful feelings instead of gigantic emotions that will define all humanity. You can follow her on Instagram.
