Sherrie Nickol

the living environment of young people

Sherrie Nickol is a photographer who provides exciting insights into the world of youth in her new book. What at first glance looks like another documentary about teenagers turns out on closer inspection to be a profound, emotional and artistic examination of the subject of youth. The author not only shows the outward appearance of the young people, but also their inner world, their dreams, hopes and fears. The complexity of the phase of growing up is impressively portrayed in vivid portraits and snapshots. This gives the book a special depth and authenticity that captivates the reader from the first to the last page.

Structure and organisation

The book is divided into different chapters, each dedicated to a specific aspect of youth. From “By the Water”, which shows young people in their natural environment, to “Crowdscapes”, which captures the dynamics and life in the crowd, each chapter offers a different perspective. This allows the reader to explore the different facets of youth and get a comprehensive picture. The careful arrangement of the images and the well thought-out structure of the chapters testify to Nickol’s great commitment and understanding of the subject. Short texts that offer additional insights and reflections and enrich the visual journey round off each chapter.
