minimalism

Minimalism in photography is represented in the number of subjects and the size of the subject. Usually there is 1 to 2 subjects and are in most cases more on the smaller side of the spectrum. A plain background/foreground is prominent in minimalism photography. They use focus to create depth to substitute the lack of subjects, color, or size of the subject.

describing photos pt2

The original viewpoint made it seem like it was photographed in a studio then later photoshopped. It was revealed that the photo was a man climbing a billboard in an industrial setting. The new viewpoint makes me aware of the artist's skills to expand the image so large for a billboard. Conceptually the image was pretty clever, but could have been more realistic. The face looked very texturized which in some cases somewhat help the realistic factor in a photoshopped image. In Ireland where this image is located, there is a body of water, and the billboard is by land. There is rusty bridge where the poster is present. her face looks engaged and unfazed which adds to the illusion to make the audience believe the man is actually climbing up the girls face as if she was aware. The girl's face looks overly bright face which was probably altered in photoshop or lighting in an original image as i first predicted. The viewpoint has really changed my perception of the my meaning and the artists intended meaning.

describing an image

There is a woman and her face is really close up to have the illusion of it being a mountain for the little man to climb on with the assistance of a rope. This image was made for artistic purposes, because come on its a guy climbing on someone's face. The details in the face are prominent like the subject was exposed to very bright light. You can also see the light being captured in the eye of the subject. The slight hairs are even presently visible in this image to add texture. Then to also emphasize the illusion of the guy "rock climbing" on the girl's face. The photo is definitely photoshopped. The meaning that the creator tried to portray is nothing other than entertainment, and hopes that someone finds it humorous. I think the photo would be better if the guy was climbing into her nose. but the proportions are spot on to trick someone into believing the false truth of the image.

forced perspective

fear (pistanthrophobia)

The fear of trusting people due to prior negative experiences with romantic partners. I don't have most implied characteristics of someone with this fear, but since i've been cheated on by my ex i still haven't been able to recover. It's just so hard for me to put my all into someone. I couldn't find someone other than my brother to be my test subject, but i believe the image conveys my fear pretty well.

I lost my file for my recovering photo project. we tried to access it, but u exempted me from it.

1. It is a video of people being stuck in their phone and not being aware of the outside world
2. It makes things seem more extreme than it is, but in real life it has gone to the extent represented in the video
3. I feel as if it is a exaggerated representation of how it is today, but it may later be the reality in our world.
