""I started doing photography as a way to express things I don't understand or to convey a message I'm having a hard time explaining. I often work in quite a backwards way, knowing exactly what I want to arrange in front of the camera but struggling to understand the significance in my life until I am able to reflect on it after.""
""The colours, shape, fabric, and the way clothing wraps around a model create a unique conversation around identity and the body. Growing up, I had a lot of questions around my sexuality and my own experience as a man. I naturally gravitated towards fashion because of the story clothing can convey in an image.""
""Recently, I spent two weeks from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. painting a wall in a church white over and over to understand patience and reflect on myself. I'm working a lot on understanding emotions and how they influence my creative process.""
Austn Fischer uses photography to express complex emotions and explore identity through fashion. His work features contrasting elements, such as lace ruffs with athletic wear, emphasizing the playful nature of self-reinvention. Fischer's background influences his focus on clothing's narrative power, particularly regarding sexuality and masculinity. He collaborates with various clients, transforming a stark black-and-white palette into warm, inviting scenes. Currently, he prioritizes emotional understanding, using reflective practices like painting to process personal experiences and enhance his creative output.
