Guy Templeton, Character Wall (PEOPLE 2025)

At Melbourne's Queen Victoria Night Market, this vendor becomes part of his own creation. Surrounded by walls of graphic t-shirts emblazoned with pop culture icons and cheeky slogans, his quiet moment contrasts with the loud visual noise around him. The monochrome palette strips away the distraction of colour, allowing the viewer to focus on the textures, expressions, and human eccentricity.
