Street Disturbed

I have decided that I need to focus on one aspect
of light instead of multiple, either the tree, sparklers or the street as a
peer mentioned that I should focus on one colour of light for the reminder of this
project. I have chosen to focus on the streets as peers have stated that it
reminds them when their drunk as they are unable to focus. The acetate on top
of the image creates a blur yet 3D effect that I and multiple others find interesting as it questions what the viewer is seeing, disorientation. The
dominant light is subtle and artificial however there is some light that is
from the sky that balances the two different lights. It has remained people of
drawings, being active and moving. Peers have also stated that they like the
fact that when moving their heads the image changes, its do it yourself
movement.

Emptiness

I have taken more photographs at night and have
learnt that the brighter the photograph the better it works with the acetate
over the top as the viewer can see what is in the photograph more clearly. Peers
particularly liked the photographs where there is some colour in the foreground
as their eyes are immediately drawn to it. I am using nails at the moment as I
can move the acetate away from the paper by moving them along the nails and see
what other effects can be done with a slight change. I have chosen three
different sizes at the moment large, medium and small to try and get some
understanding of what size I should go for when creating a final piece. Peers have mentioned that they prefer the
smaller ones as from afar people can see something unusual but have to go up
close to see it properly. I personally like the layout as there isn’t that many therefore it is not that overwhelming, it’s a bit different and your eyes follow it round.

To progress I can work with light and dark,
especially with no colour as then people can focus on the detail of the
photograph and not be distracted by the colour. I can work with the photograph
and acetate sheet separately and see what I can do to improve when putting them
together. I can work with negatives, as
it is a different way to portray light. I could try turning the images into
prints as I find that they already have a print quality to them. I need to
experiment with size, I want to try a variety of sizes from really big to
little and putting them together and mixing them up.
