Assignment Two

Demonstration of technical and visual skills

I have carried on with the same theme in this assignment but have expanded the locations. I spent time at each trying various angles and views. I took a lot of images so I would have choice for my final series. My techniques are similar to assignment one, but I feel I have developed my methods slightly since then. I have carried on trying different compositions. My images are not perfect, but this is the effect I want. They are not ‘by the book’ images, as I hope to convey the uneven inequality between men and women. 

Quality of outcome

When I first submitted this assignment, I was happy with how it had progressed, however on reflection I didn’t develop my work enough. I decided to visit more pilgrimage sites and photograph them. I kept experimenting with different views and techniques as I did in the previous assignment, but I hadn’t really put them together for assignment 2. I narrowed the images down to 16 from four sites, but they didn’t really come together or work together as a cohesive series. I simply took the images and hadn’t experimented or developed the series. Part of the was I wasn’t sure completely what I wanted to do, so thought it may have been best to get some more images first. I did have ideas but failed to implement them here. 

Demonstration of creativity

I kept experimenting with different views and techniques which could represent the inequality and exclusion. Each site was different, so produced different views. I did research into various artists who used similar techniques.  

Context

This assignment brings together four locations of the pilgrimage journey. This brings context to the work as it shows the journey from one site to another. In later assignments I hope to be able to link these sites further to create a cohesive series.
