Untitled Wisconsin is a series of photographs taken of the area where I grew up and, more specifically, of my family and my family’s dairy farm. The images are part documentary, part social critique, part historical narrative; both a celebration and nostalgia of the honesty of man working on the land, and a revealing of the problems created by low-income low-education family cycles. While the specific photos I have taken deal with my own family, the ideas and themes behind them are much broader and affect the entire social class that my family exists within. Each photograph says something about the environment where it was taken and serves as a commentary of that society’s standards within the larger global society.
