Martin Weber

I found Martin Weber’s talk extremely interesting. The way he talked about his work was very inspiring. He was so passionate about his message, and how he wanted to portray it. He took the concept of a dream and changed it into something more then just an idea. To the people that he photographed it was like he was giving them an outlet to express what their most inward desires were. He was giving them hope and a sense of a future. He gave them a place to look to rather just then allowing them to dwell on the situation that they were in. 

The next body of work that he showed us was from Echoes from the interior. I felt that these photographs had more of a personal feel. They way he spoke about these images  gave you the impression that these were images that he had emotional attachments to. After he explained an image, he would give a notion that related it to himself. You could tell that these were photographs of his country that he loved.
