The word/theme that illustrates
Olivia Locher’s work is humor. Most, if not all of her images are staged in
which she sets up a backdrop, lighting and subject matter. Further, usually
backdrops are pastel colors, lighting is even and models are natural. Her
shooting varies as far as subject matter including single body parts, portraits
and still lifes. Influenced by fashion as a child, that quality is
unquestionable is her images. Her series and book, I Fought The Law is the most well known,
in
which she shoots literal interpretations of ridiculous laws in every state, but How To displays her sarcasm well. For
instance, How to Think Inside the Box
is quite literal with imagery including a woman’s head inside a box,
“thinking”. Aesthetics fir this image incorporates an ivory background; ivory
box and light pink tissue paper. Another image, How to be Taller presents a person on a stack of books taped under
them. The staged products include a yellow background, green leg, blue tape,
striped pants and white unidentifiable books.
