Photographic Typology

We were set a task this week in Photography to find out what Photographic Typology was so that we could explore it in class on Monday. I found a little definition for it at:

"Typology is the study of types, and a photographic typology is a suite of images or related forms, shot in a consistent, repetitive manner; to be fully understood, the images must be viewed as a complete series (Kristine McKenna, "Photo Visions," Los Angeles Times, 29 Dec 1991)."
