Invisible Jumpers

Photographer Joseph Ford and knitter Nina Dodd have for the last several years worked on their collaborative project called Invisible Jumpers, in which Dodd would knit a garment that blends in with a chosen environment and then Ford would photograph the wearer. The book was published in 2019 ... but the project continues adding animals, arists, musicians to the project. As Ford explains:

"The locations have to be eye-catching but simple enough to be able to be knitted. They also have to be places that aren’t going to change too fast, as the knitting takes a few weeks...

Once I’ve found the location, I photograph someone standing where I would like the model to be in the final picture. I draw over this scouting photograph and annotate the picture with different colors and patterns so Nina can plan how to knit. Often there are 10 or 12 different shades of yarn in a single picture, and up to 24 balls of wool at any one time for the more complicated designs. The choice of yarn has varied according to the background."

Mamma, In the Meantime

In a series of 100 photos taken over a period of 4 years, artist Tony Luciani photographed his mother after she had moved in with him for health reasons. The project began when his mother photo bombed him as he was playing with a new camera in his bathroom. The moment set off a lightbuilb for the concept and the two began to play with ideas for the project. His mother appeared to enjoy the roll playing and the shared memories which were conveyed into many of the images
