Not Known – But Seen | Not Known – But Loved.<\/b><\/p>\n
A photographic series of portraits spanning a thirty year plus period.<\/p>\n
Children, young adults, their children, looking into the camera looking to the viewer.<\/p>\n
Isolated from the mayhem, isolated in the frame, isolated to create a feeling of quietness, introspection and contemplation.<\/p>\n
My aim is to portray the total absorption of my models in their own reality and to offer a twenty-first century image of the stillness and exclusion as seen in the great Italian and Dutch portraits of the sixteenth and seventeenth century.<\/p>\n

Once upon a time on the West Coast of Ireland there was a family.<\/p>\n
Ordinary people, ordinary lives.<\/p>\n
Not the grinding despair of the poor nor the intoxicating glamour of the rich!<\/p>\n
An average family.<\/p>\n
Normal people!<\/p>\n
The drama of the ordinary celebrated.<\/p>\n
I have chosen a middle class family because of their very ordinariness; their lack of extremes. They do not have the dramatic visual props off the very poor or very rich. Consequently the dynamic of the image depends on me, the photographer.<\/p>\n
Thirty odd years ago before the eventual wave of immigrants, a foreign man arrived on the West Coast of Ireland and finding\u00a0 <\/span>acceptance in a family there, he immediately started\u00a0 <\/span>to photograph their lives.<\/p>\n I am participating, looking, seeing, imagining and taking photographs.<\/p>\n Even though it is not my intention every photograph is also a record of a person, a time & a place.<\/p>\n My Fiction – My Family!<\/b><\/p>\n Bob Negryn<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_toggle][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_gallery gallery_ids=”949,950,951,952,953,954,955,956,957,958,959,960,961,962,963,964,965,966,967,968,969,970,971,972,973,974,975,976,977,978,979,980,981,982,983,984,985,986,987,988,989,990″ posts_number=”70″ _builder_version=”4.27.6″ _module_preset=”default” title_text_color=”#666666″ title_font_size=”14px” custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_css_free_form=”.mfp-bg {||background: #eff4fc !important;||opacity: 1 !important;||}||.mfp-close {||color: #000000 !important;||}||.mfp-arrow-right .mfp-a, .mfp-arrow-right:after {||color: #000000 !important;||}||.mfp-arrow-left .mfp-a, .mfp-arrow-left:after {||color: #000000 !important;||}||.mfp-title {||display: none !important;||}||.mfp-counter {||color: #666666 !important; margin-top: 10px !important;||}|| .mfp-figure:after {||display: none !important;|| }” custom_css_gallery_item=”width: 33.33% !important;||margin: 0 !important;||clear: none !important;” border_color_all=”#f0f5fb” border_width_top=”30px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_gallery][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Not KnownNot Known – But Loved | Not Known – But Seen | 1992 – 2026 Children, young adults, adults and their children, looking into the camera looking to the viewer.
