For many, old photos of more awkward and ill-dressed versions of themselves will forever remain sealed away in aging albums. However, the Irina Werning ‘Back to the Future’ series rescues these pictures out of hiding. The Buenos Aires-based photographer revisits these retro snapshots some 20 years later with the same person, same clothes and same settings as when they were first taken. The before-and-after results are nostalgic and all too funny.
The Irina Werning ‘Back to the Future’ series fascinatingly captures every detail of the original photo.
