This series is actually full of humor. In the first picture, the model is holding a water bottle and the other model decides that he wants it, so in the second picture, he steals the water bottle. In the third picture, the model who thats the water from the other holds the bottle above his head so that the other can not get to it. In the forth photo, the man whom initially had the water punches the man who took it in order to get it back, and the last two photos reveal, he in fact does get his water back.
Models: Adam Buongiovanni and Stephen Kuzma

In this 4 photograph series, there is a man sitting and a chair and another man decides to jump him in order to take his money, but when the man in the chair stands up and discovered he towers over the person jumping him, he beats his up, as shown in the last photo.

The first picture is pretty well and contains the humor element that you intended. I liked the idea because it was something different from all the other diptychs and the models did a great job with their acting too. The only thing I didn’t like was the way it is put together, it looks great overall but I was confused at first as to what was going on. After I read the explanation then I understood what was going on, and then everything seemed to be in place. I was also confused as to how the transition is going like if it was going from top to bottom or left to right. All this confusion was cleared after reading the artist statement and looking closely at the picture. At a first glance it’s pretty confusing (at least for me). Only if you would've laid the pictures in a horizontal frame and put three pictures on the top row and three on the bottom then everything would have been clear and it would’ve looked great. But overall it’s good and I liked it. :)
