Some people find the process of going to the movies particularly painful. For at least 90 minutes, you are stuck in a darkened room with a multitude of annoying people: there are those ones who feel the need to constantly double-check on the not-so-fine plot details out aloud (don't take them to
Inception), the ones that slowly devour an entire packet of Fantails chew by squelching chew, and then there are the ones that are horrifically murdered in the front row, suffocated by popcorn and strangled by licorice straps.
Or maybe that's just Thobias Faldt's view.
As can be seen above, the Scandinavian photographer clearly has a problem with cinema-goers. Using reels of film, he creates beautiful ink-blot style plumes above the heads of his suffering models. Death by popcorn – that wouldn't be such a bad way to go, would it? The use of ribbons of material continues throughout his fashion and personal photography, cropping up in many fluid forms. And it looks a lot better than the new ABC campaign.
