Living In A Fishbowl By Photographer Dana Trippe

Words

San Diego-based photographer Dana Trippe captured a provocative self-portrait series using a fishbowl to skew her reflection. In statement on c-heads magazine, the 20-year-old says: “A photo is always more appealing to me when it’s put through a distorted or unrealistic perspective. Sometimes it seems appropriate to shoot a moment in time exactly how it is in real life but I seem to be more happy when I’m pushing myself to experiment while shooting… The fishbowl has been my favorite effect so far. I’m no model, but when you´re shooting self portraits there’s no one else to worry about or please but yourself. You can take your sweet time and get as weird as you need to be.”
