Project Title: Where Landscape meets Documentary Photography, Land and Objects
Introduction
Photography and the representation of land and space have always been aligned with one another. Recent photographic work has often highlighted the links between the land and documentary ideas, often resulting in work that appears to survey spaces, offering contemporary narratives revealing our relationship with our physical environment.
Brief
- You are required to consider objects that appear within the landscape/space.
- Begin a workbook and conduct a photographic survey using any camera
- Create a Blog – upload your images
- You may choose to work in one space or in a variety of locations
- You may decide to conduct a journey from one space to another –possibly from urban to rural
- You may consider the blurring between exterior and interior spaces
- People may populate your images
