Martin Parr

Parr began work as a photographer and has taught photography  from the mid-1970s. He was first recognised for his black-and-white photography in the north of England, but switched to colour photography in 1984. The resulting work, Last Resort: Photographs of New Brighton, was published in 1986. Since 1994, Parr has been a member of magnum photos Recent work has included work with design Paul Smith in Iford, capturing people wearing Smith's Autumn/Winter 2007 collection In 2008, he was made an Honorary Doctor of Arts , in recognition for his ongoing contribution to photography.










I think this photo shows how normal objects are accepted by people but put some different ones together can completely change what people think.
