RESEARCH – LISA CARLETTA

As previously stated in the blog, the Vogue Italia editorial shoot that we researched before was a big influence in the production of our work, therefore that’s why we researched into the setting separately and now we found the art director of that photo shoot which influence us because we loved how every element was curated. Lisa Carletta is a director and photographer who travels around Europe quite frequently, however according to her Instagram she is based in Milano currently.

This image was all directed by Lisa Carletta showing two models on the floor eating and looking lifeless. I found the positioning of the models to be very clever Due to the fact that the camera angle shows the tiles pointing diagonally towards the top corner and the models are positioned so that they are also in line with the tiles, and the fact that this is diagonal shows that the image is a bit askew and therefore emulating a kind of strange vibe.  There are a lot of food items on the floor that are identical to each other which further adds a confusing structure to the photo because it’s unclear what is going on and it’s on clear that we will never find out what’s going on from looking at the image itself, Which I find clever because we are left wondering what is the narrative and therefore this photo will stick with us for quite awhile.
