Homogeneity, Kairouan, Tunisia, 2008

Eight identical mannequins display eight different costumes in the Kairouan medina. I used a 24mm wideangle lens and moved in as close as I could on the orange dress at the left hand edge to anchor the image. The wider the lens, the greater the depth of focus – at 24mm all eight mannequins remain reasonably sharp. The lack of variation from mannequin to mannequin – only the costumes change – is incongruous and implies that the shoppers here are comfortable with conformity.
