The work of Robbie Cooper
---------------------------------------------------------------------
explores the issues surrounding the increasing amount of contemporary media immersion we experience on a daily basis through the medium of photography and video.
Cooper's subjects ranged from children playing video games to people living out second lives through online virtual worlds. I liked how this exhibition highlighted how each and every one of us are guilty of disengaging from real life on a daily basis, one way or another. I thought the concept was different, especially the photographs of people's reactions when video gaming and watching particular programmes.
The exploratory stage of Cooper's exhibition, photographing people whom possess a second life online let the exhibition down slightly. I think Cooper could have delved deeper into this investigative phase of the show, as the imagery was slightly poorer than that of the first part.
Having said this, I thought it was still a fresh idea to play with in terms of documentry photography, and worth a look.
Plant life.
