Created Equal: Photographer Explores Social Inequality in America
Detroit-born photographer Mark Laita questions what it is in life that puts people, who were born equal, to follow completely different paths. His album CreatedEqual is a a study of social and cultural clashes, as well as the influence of different background, schooling and upbringing. All diptychs in the book compare two people, who have some kind of a connection that ends up being the biggest contrast between them: for example, out-laws are put next to policemen, school drop-outs next to college graduates, and Amish teens are paired with punk teenagers.
Created Equal, Mark’s first non-commercial work, took him 8 years to complete and was published in 2010. “I photograph what I love about my country, which is the American. By that I mean the individual who is shaped from more than 200 years of liberty and independence mixed with all the successes and failures that America has experienced in its short life. So here is a collection of these creatures. Tragic and wonderful, great and ordinary, they stand proud and ready for scrutiny,” says Mark. Discover what “the American” is to this photographer!

Bob Marley is my grandfather. Forming a relationship with his music and message is surreal experience. I have to wonder what he’s thinking right now, about me, about my family, about the world… I don’t think he’d be happy honestly… I’m not… But I don’t know, things have changed since his death,…
