Duane Michals: Narratives through Photography

Duane Michals is an 82-year old photographer, who still takes photographs today. Michals was unique in the way that he manipulated the medium to communicate narratives through his works. He was more focused on how to represent the nature of his subjects rather than their physical features. He also incorporated texts and poetic phrases under his photographs to allow viewers to get a glimpse of what he is trying to convey.

These are some self-portraits of the photographer:
