Andrey Pochernin
the Glance (Series)
DESCRIPTION
I'm attracted to emotions. I got a degree in psychology. Any psychologist will say that "the eyes are the mirror of the soul". I want to show people of different genders, ages, and activities in this project. But they all have one thing in common - thoughts. Thoughts that we can see through their eyes. The soul of each reflects their gaze.
There are no preconceived poses in this series. As a psychologist, I speak to those in front of my camera. I try to "turn on the emotional wave." I take a picture of when a person begins to feel this or that feeling. So it captured the joy, surprise, sadness, strength, weakness, fatigue, surprise, happiness...
Some are humble and shy—someone bold and looking straight ahead. Someone is immersed in discussion with himself. But for everyone, these emotions are reflected on the face and eyes.
People are dressed in different clothes and temporary or professional branches in these shots. But everyone, at all times, in any place, in any profession, we are united by feelings and emotions. I want every viewer to be touched for the soul by every image they see, like a look.
