Full Description
Defying traditional portraiture,
Wolfgang Strassl (*1956) has made a series of photographs which
encapsulates the rich, varied, eclectic and diverse population of London
as seen in the democratising space of a carriage on the London
Underground. By omitting the face in these portraits, Strassl allows us
an undistracted and genuine perusal of these passengers and the stories,
which their visual appearances are telling. This also challenges our
ability to see, recognise and understand these stories. It is a gentle
yet pervasive look at the great sea of humanity travelling in
subterranean London and the rich diversity in this contemporary
metropolis.
