EDITORS COMMENTS
In this monochrome print captured in 1975, we are transported to the streets of Kirkby, Merseyside, England. The photograph showcases a man and a young boy both clad in checkered clothing, each following separate paths that symbolize their individual journeys. As they walk away from us, their contrasting choices become evident. The image beautifully portrays the concept of similarity and contrast - the man's tall figure juxtaposed against the small stature of the boy creates an intriguing visual dynamic. Their paths also reflect different textures; while one is paved and marked with a sign prohibiting cycling, the other appears rough and overgrown with grass. This thought-provoking composition invites contemplation on life's choices and decisions. It serves as a reminder that even though two individuals may start from similar origins or wear similar clothes, their paths can diverge drastically based on personal preferences and circumstances. Dave Fobister skillfully captures this moment frozen in time within an English housing estate. Through his lens, he reveals not only historical aspects but also universal themes such as growth, exploration, and self-discovery. This black-and-white photograph stands as a testament to Fobister's talent for capturing poignant human stories through his artistry behind the camera lens.
