Sleeping is something everyone does. “These pictures observe nappers all over the world – we can all relate to it, it’s such a universal thing,” he says. “We’re dealing with people of different age groups, races, classes. It’s an interesting way of creating a visual narrative that deals with these things in an implicit way.” And, he adds, naps are healthy: “I’m on my way to Barcelona at the moment, and in Spain people have a siesta and they live longer than all the other people in Europe.” The man in the shop never saw the picture of himself having a snooze. “I think if he saw it he would have a bit of a chuckle,” Paul Trevor says. “He’d probably complain that it was supposed to be his siesta and they forced him into the shop, so he decided to have his siesta anyway.”
