My Favorite Color
Was Yellow is a limited edition high quality photo book, self-published in
an edition of 500. It will be published in English consisting of an essay,
quotes and 70 color photographs. After a
period of documenting Kirsty began to probe deeper and the title of the book
“My Favorite Color Was Yellow” reflects the theme at the heart of the book - a
lack of choice. Kirsty offers us a sensitive and intimate glimpse into the
lives of these girls own private worlds.
Photographer Kirsty Mackay set out to photograph girls with
their pink possessions as a way to understand how this one color has become
dominant. Working over a five year period, making portraits of the girls in
their bedrooms and on the High St, combined with research.
I really like the theme and the research the photographer
has put into these series of photographs.
Researching how something as simple as color plays such an important
role in the separation of males and female.
I also really enjoyed the simplicity and normal aura these pictures give
off.
