Tariq Tarey, Visual Ethnographer

One of the kindest, hardest working photographers I know is my friend Tariq Tarey. By day, he helps refugees settle into their new lives in the United States. By night, he documents the lives of the very same refugees he's surrounded by in Central Ohio.

 

Just being in the same room as Tariq forces me to work better as a photographer. His understanding of light and portraiture are masterful, and I can't help but make portraits when in his company. Today, however, Tariq was the subject!

 

These are two test sheets of expired TMAX 100 developed as B&W slides. The reversal process is a bit harder to control than regular B&W development, but the end results are something special. Transparencies were scanned to retain the warmth from selenium toning.
