Under Twenty-Seven by Ella Dreyfus
Under Twenty-Seven is a series of portraits depicting the same group of men as they evolve from childhood into adulthood, and their development from boyhood in 2005, through adolescence in 2012, into young men in 2019. The sensitive and poignant portraits address contemporary concepts of masculinity and Dreyfus acknowledges her privileged position as mother and witness to these subtle yet momentous changes.
Ella Dreyfus is a multi-disciplinary artist, well-known for her photographic exhibitions that engage with representations of the human body, embracing the ordinary and striking a rich source of humanity, compassion and emotional resonance.
