"Forced to examine ourselves in ways many normally avoid,
Rituals as a project sought to capture the moment in which we our lives
become devoid of distraction and we become intimately aware of
ourselves. By photographing people’s personal beauty rituals I attempted
to capture this awareness, this intimacy that occurs only when one is
forced to examine their own body, the most basic thing that is theirs,
and build upon it." Nooran Matties is a 19 year-old photographer based in Baltimore, where she goes to the Maryland Institute College of Art. Her series entitled Rituals has been recently published in iconnumag.
Let's get to it:
The morning make-up and hair routine has a touch of serenity in it. It's an alone time between you and your body. You examine every part, every flaw, and every beautiful feature. These photographs capture the transient tranquility of the interaction we engage in with the mirror every morning and night.
