Uncovering Viavian Maer has been an interesting journey. The story of Vivian seemed like one big mystery. It started with a discovery made by John maloof at an auction, It’s funny how someone’s intuition works because he chose the strangest box. The box unveiled negative film which led him to find hundreds and hundreds of more negatives. Curiosity led John to learning more about Vivian form looking up addresses and finding more extensions of her background. Truly an astounding process finding the identity of ones incredible work of street photography. Vivian was born in NYC her mother was from the countryside of France. Vivian had no close relatives with her. She worked at a sweatshop originally. She was tired of working in spaces she felt gave her limitations so she pursued the career of becoming a nanny. She spent years and years being a caregiver and throughout her years she took amazing street photography. Throughout this years people that she knew or encountered recognized the camera around her neck, but no knew she possessed thousands and thousands of negatives. It never registered with people that she took powerful images. Throughout the course of her life she went from home to home providing caregiving services and even traveled the world. She was very talented, but like many artists she had complexities about her. The people that were in her life recognized that she had mental illness and one f those symptoms were hoarding. No one knows who effected her life in such prolific ways. One of the things that I find interesting were her self portraits as a millennial we would call it a selfie. Watching the documentary up to a certain point I thought she was keen on hiding her identity. Especially after she hid thousands and thousands of photos for years. She shot photos on the that shows peoples emotions and their pain and life being lived in various ways. I can’t help to think that maybe all she wanted to feel is belonged.
One of the most interesting scenes was towards the end of the film which talked about her hoarding problem. She had stacks and stacks of newspapers and if anyone moved it she would notice instantaneously. That really showcased some sort of mental illness. Vivian had a lot of complexities, but that was the tip of the iceberg. She had to be let go because of a mental breakdown and I believe that was the turning point for Vivian.
What was so intriguing to me was how this woman could be a nanny for 40 years and find solace in being just that. She started working a sweatshop factory in New York City and realized one day that she wanted more. She wanted something that had some level of freedom. She wanted to be outside and take in the environment. So being a nanny gave her that escape. Through that she was able to explore the world in her own little way. One of the tricks I learned from Vivian's technique of photographing people obliviously. She used this unique camera to mind some level incognito when photographing random people. There was a peep hole at the top of the camera, so that all she had to do was look down at her camera opposed to bringing it up to her face stating the obvious. I plan on watching the film again very soon there’s still so much to unravel about the late Vivian Maer and work and her motive. I told my family about it and one of my kins are actually into photography. I’m sure she’d be delighted to learn about the untold story of street photography.
