Family Squeeze

As soon as our family gets our hands on a Polaroid camera, a clear favorite subject matter emerges for me.

It's the photos we capture as a family, huddling together within the frame, with one of us serving as both model and photographer. These snapshots serve as wonderful mementos, each one unique in expression and presence, setting them apart from any other images of us.

The faces and bodies are mounted on ball joints, allowing everyone to be arranged in various positions and angles, ensuring a dynamic composition. Beneath the frame, the Polaroid's rainbow spills out, functioning as both a support structure and a way to position the assembled figures in z-depth. Some forced perspective is also at play in the construction, as certain figures are deliberately crafted smaller to create the illusion of distance.

The Polaroid frame is mounted with bricks with studs on the side, those are fastened by jumper plates so the uneven frame can be mounted in the center of the even frame.
