Final

Erica — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 02:53:21 +0000

In this series my goal is to take something that isn’t typically looked at and force the viewer to examine and question what they are seeing. What I am particularly interested in is bodily fluids. My plan is to collect this substance for 10 days and then print each image small enough to fit in the palm of a hand. I’ll print about 50. I like the idea of people finding these images and having to look at them really closely. I’m okay with people not realizing what these images are.

Harpers Index

Erica — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 02:52:37 +0000

After reading Harpers I fell in love with it. I didn’t find it terribly difficult to read and it was interesting. I really enjoyed the Harpers Index. This is a page filled with little facts and one of the facts that caught my eye was, “Number of states where the obesity rate declined last year: 0″

Obesity is a serious issue in our world today and I felt I needed to make work about it. My idea is to show how convinent fast.

Rough:

I find it ridiculous that there was a need for Mcdonalds to be open 24 hours. I also believe that obesity is caused by a mixture of things, two of those being unhealthy food and late night eating/snacking.

This is a good jumping off idea and even now I’m thinking of different ideas on how to show the obesity problem. Like, how do I show how many people visit Mcdonalds in one day? I could some how get the number of people that have visited a Mcdonalds and photograph that number in french fries or hamburgers.

Problem-Solving Day 4: The clothes make the girl

Erica — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 02:20:33 +0000

I wanted to show how I feel in certain pieces of clothing.

I haven’t allowed the viewer to see all of my face in these photos because the clothes act like a sort of mask. In these clothes I feel like a different person. A confident person.

I left my face in these photos because the clothes that I’m wearing make me feel very exposed.

Failed Image:

I believe that the shadow in the background is a bit distracting. Plus the lighting is different from the rest.

Pay attention to: Food

Erica — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 04:21:26 +0000

For my last day of paying attention I decided to photograph the food I ate. This is a visual documentation of what I ate on November 14, 2009. I really liked this idea and maybe I’ll continue it.

I’m not sure what I think about the different backgrounds.

Pay attention to: Rectangles

Erica — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 03:59:21 +0000

The forth day I decided to photograph rectangles. Everyday I notice all the rectangles in my classrooms so I took this opportunity to collect them. This was harder than I thought it was going to be. I got in trouble a couple of times for not paying attention in class because I was focused on all the rectangles in the room.

Successes:

Failures:

For me, the compositions in these images fall flat.
