Mr. Toledano is a documentary photographer. The picture above is from his bankrupt series. He went into office spaces that had recently closed down and documented what they left behind. I enjoyed this series as well as his "Phonesex series" and his very personal "Days with my Father" when he documented his father's grief process (and combined with his short term memory loss.)
Sarah Sudhoff is a former instructor of mine at UTSA. Her recent photos (5 months pregnant ones) seem to be going a different direction than he previous projects (Repository and Hour of our Death.) I checked her site and I found no statement from her about this photo or this series.
Rion's Sabean's Pin-up series is rather humorous. A friend sent me a link on Facebook thinking I would like it. When view more of this work, I found myself laughing out loud. I think he is showing how ridiculous people look when they do these poses. He site says his work revolves around social commentary that focus on gender and sexuality issues and brings them into the light. (paraphrased from his Artist Statement found here.)
Cosplay is a simply costume play. People dress up in these costumes based on anime, video game and even comic book characters they seem to fancy. Eien's project, "Cosplay in America" is a documentation of people who partake of this hobby at anime conventions across the nation.
