Exercise - FIve Surrealist Style Images - PETER DENCH



FIVE of your own Surreal images ...

























PETER DENCH 

Anaylise Dench's style ..

Having looked at Peter Dench's work I can see similarities to the work of Martin Parr although it seems a little coarser.  More untidy images and some of the images make you feel a little uncomfortable.  Parr's work some of it boarders on being cartoonish and amusing, bright and breezy. 

Peter Dench work is also approached with humour and I have picked a few pictures below.  The back of the ladies hair I must admit makes me snigger.  Its like all documentary photography, it does poke fun at people and things.  He is not my favourite of the photographers, maybe a little untidy for me. He is very colourful, which I like and the colour adds to his style.
I think his surrealism is effective in most cases, in a subtle way.  

The images have an earthiness,  I don't think I would buy a book of his work and enjoy looking at it over and over, maybe he will grow on me.
