Have you ever wondered what is going on in the minds of people who pass you on the street? Some frown, others smile carelessly, and still others hide behind an unapproachable mask. But they are all, no doubt, thinking about something. About what? This is the question that photographer Katie Sokoler and her friend Matt Adams tried to answer.
The young people's idea is simple and at the same time quite original. Thanks to her, you can not only find out what passers-by on the street think about, but also clearly see their thoughts.
Of course, Katie and Matt did not invent a mind reading device. Everything is much simpler: “I made clouds of people's thoughts out of paper,” she says, “and we hung them all over Brooklyn. We waited for people to pass under the drawings, and when it happened, I took pictures of them. It turned out pretty funny, isn't it?
For Katie and Matt, despite all their differences, people tend to think about the same things. First of all, about love - Katie is sure of that. Food comes second, followed by "young ladies in bikinis." Do you think that the list of thoughts of passers-by is not limited to this? Can you suggest other, more creative options? Well, you can always hold a similar session in your own city with your own pictures. It should be just as funny.
It's not the first time for Katie Sokoler and Matt Adams to come up with interesting ideas for photographs on the streets of the city. We have already talked about one of them, where the play of shadows was played in an original way. As you can see, young people do not hold their imagination, and therefore let's hope that this creative couple will please us more than once with their fun projects.
