Martin Parr

With photography, I like to create fiction out of reality. I try and do this by taking society's natural prejudice and giving this a twist."

Quote above is a quote from Martin Parr, although i am still experimenting with whether or not I want to be doing documentary or portraiture photography i think that this quote very much ties in with what I aim to do in my proposal.

One of the main things that is suggested on his website is that he like to challenge ways of thinking

Parr photographs things that were once familiar in a new way and make us question why we accept certain norms about society.

In this sense martin Parr is very much to do with my project. Putting theory in to practice with my pictures i may want to people to question why skinny figures, clear skin, lots of makeup are referred to as perfect?

Or why there is only one way or one look for being beautiful?
