Petty Crimes:
The faces of everyday criminals, and the articles of their crimes
Pitching
Photo series created in response to Topic.com’s March issue on crime; specifically the question of what constitutes a criminal. We decided to look at the ridiculous side of everyday "crimes", in order to investigate a darker side - what is designated illegal and what is not. The goal of the series is to highlight the frequency with which ordinary people commit what is officially known as a 'crime', and question where the line between moral ambiguity and societal condemnation lies.
We had to pitch a paragraph outlining the tone of the series, and decided to go with something whimsically saterical, and widely relatable. This paragraph would later accompany the photography in the issue.
