Natasha Durlacher
Having originally come from a fine art background, working as a set designer and muralist for film and theatre sets, I have used my camera since childhood as my recorder of visual memories, expression of ideas, emotions and important moments in time. The enriching experience of working in the art world and having travelled extensively throughout the Far East inspired me to express myself and other peoples stories, through my photography.
During these recent periods of enforced isolation, images of solitary figures and empty spaces can emphasise feelings of melancholy, yet at a different moment in history these same images may be seem peaceful, calm and uplifting.
For the past year during lockdown I have been trying to capture, as much as possible, our new way of life, with a strong focus on the stories of teenagers and young adults.
