Back to the Future

Here's a project I can't get enough of -- Back to the Future by Argentinian photographer Irina Werning. I imagine there is something truly cathartic about restaging ones self, frozen twice over in a past/present moment.

I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else's house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it's imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today... A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.

More photos after the jump ...
