'Lo-fi' is a term used to describe photographs that have intentionally introduced imperfections like poor focus, Intentional Camera Movement, aberrant colours, saturation, exposure, or as in my image, the addition of grain to create a more filmic look. In our ultra-high-resolution digital world, lo-fi photographs are perhaps becoming closer to how we see or remember things in reality. They can bring a deep sense of creative pleasure by subliminally encouraging acceptance of, and even celebrating, imperfection.
