    How TODD HIDO creates ATMOSPHERE
    Todd Hido's photography connects with me on an emotional level. It makes me feel something. It triggers my imagination into inventing the narratives for these situations. With the absence of people, I place myself into the story. And this is why I think Hido’s work connects with so many people: because it invites us to create our own personal narrative.
    Places we associate with activity are disconcerting when that activity is absent. While in films and TV shows, the fear is focussed on what we might find hiding around the next corner: the zombies, the monsters, the people whose intentions may not be in our best interest, I think this trope resonates so deeply with people for a slightly different reason. I think it taps into a fundamental fear many of us have of being truly alone.
    Ultimately Todd Hido’s work connects with us because we make our own connection with it. The lack of clear, objective narrative in his imagery means we channel our own experience and feelings into it, and that has the potential to make a connection that feels profoundly strong and deep. For me, Hido has found the perfect balance of evoking a feeling that resonates with many people, while leaving the specifics of interpretation for the viewer to create themselves.

    I was gutted when I first saw Hido's work. Someone had already done everything that I realised I was trying to do with my own photography, and far better than I ever could. I can't relate to your sense of disturbance at these liminal spaces, they feel so homely and welcoming to me.

      @@jamiewindsor what do you think about Daido Moriyama? I would love to see a video on his work just like what you did here with Todd. For me, he is one of these photographers that can put tons of emotional content into a single photo (in his case, using very unorthodox techniques).

      I have loved Hido's photography for years and they make me feel cozy and warm too. I guess we can picture ourselves inside and curled up. I live in the North and so during winter these real images are everywhere while I am driving in the country. I also love fog, it makes some feel creepy but it makes me feel like I am in an enchanted world.

    We're moving house at the moment and yesterday I set foot in the old house. Now nearly empty except for the furniture that belongs to the landlord. We have lived there for 2 years and made it our own although it was a rental. Seeing it stripped down kind of makes it uncanny. The staircase is mostly as it was, so when I walked down my brain tricked me into thinking I was in the full furnished house again. But I wasn't, of course. It was like I was stepping back in time, but it was an alternate, emptied out universe. No girlfriend or cat present. I got the same with those shots. Thanks for this video!

    Nice vdeo. Good description of that feeling. I definitely experienced it during the first lockdown of 2020, had to pick up something from a shop in a usually bustling shopping centre, it was bizarre, no music, no people murmuring and chattering, absolute silence, with the only noise being the squeak of my shoes on the polished tile floor echoing with extraordinary reverberation. Of course there was also the feeling that 'should I have been there picking up some spectacles for someone else who cannot see? Would the police ask me if this was essential?' This was back in april, when the media had convinced many people we were all going to die.
