Daphne Confar
My work is about capturing that something about people that makes them feel familiar to us; that something which tugs on our heart or reminds us of a feeling we’ve had about someone. I really appreciate people’s stories. I enjoy imagining what people lives are like, what make them tick, what makes them nervous, and if they have regrets. I capture the look on a face when someone is having a happy memory, or the body language of someone who is not sure of themselves. I know those feelings and I thin usually my viewers recognize them as well. -Daphne Confar
