Artist's Statement:
With this project, I was aiming to exemplify my little brother's rambunctious personality through the medium of photography. I began with an interview to truly get a sense who he was as a person. From that, I learned that he's a silly guy who likes to joke and play around. But when needed, he can also be thoughtful and contemplative. All in all, he's a well rounded character - in both personality and in stature.
