The photographer showed the lives of the marginalized.
It is only at first glance it seems bizarre and absurd world. And in fact, so the photographer shows the beauty of marginalized people in everyday life. With this project the photographer of Swiss origin Stefan Rappo (Stefan Rappo) looking for the relationship between the strange and the ordinary, explores the conventional idea of beauty and blurs the line between the beautiful and the eccentric.
Rappa writes about his project:
“Society decides what is beautiful and what is not. The imperfections and shortcomings are biased, and beauty is often measured by the set of criteria that leave no room for variations. I was all puzzled, and tells about the importance of society in our days gives – or gave – their physical appearance and the age-old question: what is beauty?
The project “Room 42” was born from these questions and the desire to bring together people who look unusual or commonly, depending on the criteria of normality – in a dream world, which could be the ultimate place to live. If they are all placed in the same situation, the story of each person is unique and special. With this project I wanted to show these characters to cause the audience questions: Who is this man? What is his life? Does he have the same fears, joys, anxieties and dreams as me?
The world “Room 42″ created entirely out of a desire to showcase the beauty of people marginalized in daily life, and to give them expression in an unconventional context.”
