"Outside VERSUS Inside" by Ryan Pfanner


"Where I want to be Versus Where I am"
This sequence of photos is supposed to represent where I actually want to be during this quarantine. AND where I actually am. It's already been more than a month and I try and go on daily walks but being inside for so long gets to me. Photos 6-10 are a series of highlights on the dedicated moments of my time during the stay at home order.

  1. Ryan I think you've presented a great juxtaposition of what your life is like. I'm sure that all of us can connect and relate to these images in some fashion. The images of your outdoor activities draw me in more. I enjoy the spacing and ability to walk in and through them. Although the diagonal view in the first image throws me off and makes me dizzy. It would be nice to see a few images of your indoor activities that provide a wider view to pair with the subject matter captured up close. Great job though!

My practice drastically changed once going into quarantine. I found it very difficult to have any motivation once being home all the time. This is especially because I was mainly photographing people. I was no longer able to photograph people in the same way, and ended up mainly photographing my brother in different metroparks in the Toledo area. This proved to be a challenge  as I could no longer shoot on film either, and my dslr stopped working a week into quarantine. This led to most of my photos being phone pics. With these limitations I tried to play off of weird projects I already had been doing. My photos for mom series are literal phone pictures I have always taken for my mom of my brother and I doing weird things in parks. This also drew off of my idea to make eye-spy type pictures of my brother and I hiding in the trees. The last of my film photos are also stuck as edited TIFFs. I was unable to download photoshop as my laptop has no storage, and the files were too big for...
roommates mariah and I worked on portraits which is not something in my comfort zone 

And it stoned me

A recent journal entry: "Today a friend asked me to think about my goals for the next twenty years. The thought stoned me. It's frightening to think that far in advance, and I'm not sure I want to. At time it is difficult to see past tomorrow or the day after that." "...The thought of the future takes my breath away. I like keeping my feet on the ground here in the present just concentrating on the task at hand while keeping an eye on what tomorrow may bring." Suggested listening: Van Morrison "And It Stoned Me"
