Faces #12 1998

Vibeke Tandberg's 1998 photograph "Faces #12" is a close-up portrait of a young man, capturing a moment of quiet introspection. The subject, clothed in a simple light blue shirt, stares directly at the viewer with a neutral expression. The minimalist composition, with the blurred background and focused face, emphasizes the individual’s presence and invites the viewer to engage with their gaze. Tandberg’s "Faces" series explores the complexities of identity and self-representation through intimate portraits, often showcasing individuals from her personal circle.
