Mini Project

Our brief:

Take five black and white photographs of two or more unrelated objects or people. What I want you to do is carefully consider the way in which you frame and compose things within the photographic ‘window’ to create a relationship that was not previously there.

What is it about the photographic print that seems to give everything within the frame equal weight and could we call this process ‘democratic’?


My response:


 I developed and printed these photographs in the black room, trying out various effects until I got the ones I was happy with. Some were under exposed or over exposed, so it was a case of trial and error. 

I like the symmetry inherent in the order of the series: horse, cats, ducks, cats, horse.
