stephanie de rouge: in your fridge
highly voyeuristic and honest, the series captures an almost intrusive-side of the subjects' daily life - the inner contents of their refrigerators.

with a fascination for big cities and their occupants, new york-based photographer stéphanie de rougé started out with a series that documented various types of people in their most natural environment – the bedroom – but found this space to be lacking in intimacy and permanence. ‘the building walls don’t talk. new yorkers move all the time, share and sublet rooms,’ says rougé. ‘not a good setting for a long term relationship with one self.’
from there, she organically stumbled upon the idea of ‘in your fridge’, a candid series of images which records individuals and the inner contents of their refrigerators. highly voyeuristic and honest, the collection of photographs is a spin on the idea of portraits, capturing an almost intrusive side of the subject’s daily life.
