Relation to my work:

Surroundings are the area around a given physical point or place.  Surroundings can also be objects and physical items that are in relation or are near someone or something.   In my project I am photographing women in their spaces and the objects that surround and define them in some way.  People and their surroundings is a large part of my project since I am photographing women in their spaces.  Often when I photograph the women I have things that represent their personalities or something that identifies them within the space.
