Questioning the idea of the portrait, Mikael Johansson's 'Lots of People Talk but Few of Them Know' portfolio centers around pictures of various young males. Portraying subtle emotions that leave each slightly vulnerable, the half-naked, breathing busts do give a sense of "cliches we're trapped in," as the UK-based photographer puts it.
