In a series of portraits titled "Show," photographer Toby Coulson presents images of participants in animal shows, revealing a collection of shared, distinct passions. The project was inspired by a quote from John Berger that says, "The pet offers its owner a mirror to a part that is otherwise never reflected." The subjects portrayed are true to this statement, as humans are shown holding the animal of their expertise, and viewers can relate the two in a newly recognized character. Coulson is known for his eccentric selection of subjects, and this time they include pigeon lovers, rabbit breeders, and cat groomers.
