Fotografia’s Five Most Seen Posts of May 2016
Fotografia‘s most seen post last month was Human Dilatations, a series of portraits by Swiss photographer Roger Weiss which transforms the women who pose for the photographer in dilated, inflated bodies as a critique to the current standards of female beauty.
Second most seen was Polish photographer Lola Paprocka‘s mix of portraits and landscape photography to capture the new face of Belgrade, Serbia’s capital city. Spanish photographer Gloria Oyarzabal comes in third with Ophelia, a set of self-portraits for which Gloria poses naked in several different environments to impersonate the well-known character from Shakespeare’s tragedy Hamlet. Fourth in this top five we find American photographer Stephen Speranza with Wilmerding, a long-term project that documents life in a declining American town. The last position sees Indian photographer Soham Gupta with his harrowing portraits of Kolkata’s poorest.
