Free Ground by Trevor Appleson
This unique book showcases South African photographer Trevor Appleson's two major contemporary projects: "Beaches" and "Uniforms." "Beaches" presents portraits taken in the golden light of dusk and dawn on a beach near Cape Town. Beach bums, vendors, gang members, children, and swimmers are all photographed against a black background. Although the subjects are not connected, seen together their images resemble the cast of a Biblical epic, leaving viewers to ponder what is happening off-camera. In "Uniforms," Appleson focuses on people in uniform, with photographs of police, fruit packers, schoolchildren, and security guards reminiscent of Old Master paintings.
Trevor Appleson has photographs in public and private collections. His previous books include Los Loss and Free Ground.
