Edits

A continuation with the use of dying objects, but I wanted to bring in colour. My peers were drawn to the boldness of the previous images photographed on blue perspex, and I drew the inspiration from some of Linus Lohoff's work, bold colour makes a much more impactive image, especially when working with minimalist compositions. 


Here I wanted to contrast the colour, orange with green, the blue mould I thought may link them together. Not so much, looking at the result. The blue is too pale in comparison to the bold green and orange, rather than bringing it all together it more so alienates the colours further. Moving on!



The yellow compliments the soft tone of the bronze, it feels almost sleepy. The green of the branch is soft also, but adds in a subtle contrast. The theme of object misuse continues.


I very much like the composition of the below image. Minimal visual with an unusual subject. 







The below images were an attempt to re-make/bring back the visuals of the previous illusion (on blue perspex). On an aesthetic level, the images are becoming abstract. Void of rational meaning, seemingly making no or little sense, but are geometric and definitely interesting to look at. 


Again I rotated the images to experiment. What resulted is that we are shown an image that makes even less sense, no apparently gravity just shape, colour and composition. Unusual colours, not what we are used to seeing day-to-day. 




It is this image that sticks out the most to myself and my peers, within this shoot. For the simple reason of the reversed colouring between the banana and the background. Simple but effective. The banana is limp, black in death, it feels as if the background is almost making fun of the banana, showing off its bold colour.
