Force & Form

Nadine Johnstone

 The physical interactions, the facial expressions, and psychological pressures that are exchanged between athletes tell us a story of connection, determination, teamwork, and mental strength. Sport is so much more than physical activity—it is a powerful reflection and projection of identity, community, resilience, and emotion.
 
These images are not necessarily what you might expect from sports photography, focusing as they do on expression and movement, isolating key moments and body parts intertwined in action. There’s so much more to rugby and this series aims to evoke just that.
