HELPFUL? NECESSARY? OR JUST GETTING IN THE WAY?

How would you photograph if you’ve never seen another photo? How would you photograph if you’ve never been bombarded with images of what “good photography” is? No magazine aisles. No celebrities. How would you photograph if platforms like instagram didn’t exist? Should we really determine our artistic vision based on how things are commonly displayed? Is it helpful? Is it necessary? Or is it just getting in the way?
