My practice drastically changed once going into quarantine. I found it very difficult to have any motivation once being home all the time. This is especially because I was mainly photographing people. I was no longer able to photograph people in the same way, and ended up mainly photographing my brother in different metroparks in the Toledo area. This proved to be a challenge as I could no longer shoot on film either, and my dslr stopped working a week into quarantine. This led to most of my photos being phone pics. With these limitations I tried to play off of weird projects I already had been doing. My photos for mom series are literal phone pictures I have always taken for my mom of my brother and I doing weird things in parks. This also drew off of my idea to make eye-spy type pictures of my brother and I hiding in the trees. The last of my film photos are also stuck as edited TIFFs. I was unable to download photoshop as my laptop has no storage, and the files were too big for...
OOOOOooooo buildings! I am not a person who's very interested in architecture but these pictures show off the building so well I am now intrigued. The warm lighting with the shadow give the images a kind of cinematic and peaceful feel. Instead of wondering about the inhabitants the pictures make me think about the history of the building itself. I want to know why the building was build, what events its been through and what its future is. You have pulled out the character of the building(s)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Chris in saying that you were able to bring these buildings to life and express their character. I like the way the light reflects off them and casts shadows and the fact that in some of the images there are no people or even cars; this gives them a quiet and peaceful feel. I also enjoy the way the color of the buildings give the images a warm feel as well.
