Is This What Love Is
Online dating has been a phenomenon since the early Millenium , making establishing connection amongst people more convenient. This establishment of convenience also stirs up the confusion of what relationships should be. This is part of my ongoing work “ Is This What Love Is”. The series takes a look at how the use of dating apps has had an effect on contemporary relationships , or to another extent just to look at how modern relationships exist with each other.
As the photographer , I am constantly shifting between participating and documenting in such events. The process has become a liberating experience in itself. The work broke boundaries on what I personally thought a photography project could achieve. It instead became a catalyst in aiding my views on modern relationships whilst redefining what love is and what love can feel like in the 21st century.
