Photos by Inka Lindergard and Niclas Holmstroem.

When I saw these photographs by Inka Lindergard and Niclas Holmstroem I thought they demonstrated the principle of ‘Your Space’ perfectly. In ‘Your Space’ the idea of camouflage going beyond optical illusions is encouraged. Here, in these pictures, I get a real sense of the people blending into their environment through the colour and the texture of their clothing. You know the people are there, yet they seem to be submerged in their settings.

There is no camera trickery, it’s the palette of the clothing alone which dictates that the people do not become the main focus of the photographs.
