Another similar piece to that of the recently discussed 'Face of the Century' project is 'Generations'. The piece 'Generations' is a series of photographs in which Germain has gathered and positioned a number of families evidently creating a photograph similar to that of a family portrait. The work engages similar themes to that of 'Face of the Century'  producing similar outcomes in which the aging process, life cycle and passage of time are all addressed  His work seems to question that of nature vs nurture highlighting the many lines of decent in which come with any family 

 Personally i love this style of photography, i love the simpleness of the background alongside the use of natural lighting. I feel it really gives you a good idea of the family in which you are viewing, it adds to there appearance and presence almost as thought its an addition to that of their personality as a whole. The positioning of the people used is also very simple yet clever as it seems to capture everything which is needed for the shot placing young to old or old to young almost creating and highlighting the deterioration process of life itself. The addition of the naturally selected decor, furniture and clothes again says something about each family we are viewing, for example rich, poor, mostly older or mostly younger. Its almost as though Germain has captured everything we need to know about a family within one shot, thus creating a self evaluation and interpretation of each family used.
