Freaks, Geeks & Those Who Act Like Sheep

Scottish photographer Euan Robb merges fantasy with the everyday in his series of portraits entitled ‘Freaks, Geeks & Those Who Act Like Sheep’.

Drawing on the stereotypical representations of teenage ‘archetypes’ within the ‘teen’ and ‘coming-of-age’ genres of contemporary film and television, Robb presents the viewer with a specific and familiar cast: The Jock, the Goth, the Geek, the Gossip, the Skater and the Activist.

Each character is photographed in a unique, constructed set, designed to have the appearance of the fictional persona’s bedroom. Presenting them through the visual language of parody, within the fantasy world of the movie from which they originate. A movie that does not exist.
