Tina Barney



Tina Barney is a New York photographer who works primarily in portraiture.

Her subjects don't just exist as bodies placed in an arbitrary environment but are defined by the rumpled curtains, hair brushes, dolls, and piles of clothes that overwhelm each photo.
I think that I am so drawn to these photographs because of Tina Barney's ability to make these ordinary household objects personal, revealing and essential in describing her subjects.
