The title of this project is “Cosmos”.
The societal issue I want to explore with my photographs is the selfishness of society. Today, everyone sees their experiences or feelings as the most important issue in the world when in reality, humans live on a tiny rock in a large, ever-expanding universe. Whilst some issues highlight societal flaws, it’s also important to remember that we are not the centre of the universe, and (quite literally) not everything revolves around the Earth.
I want my audience to feel intrigued when they see my photographs as if they haven’t seen anything like it before. I also want them to ponder the meaning behind the images, because it might not be as transparent as other ideas.
I will get inspiration and develop my ideas by looking for photographs that use image projection on models in order to create contrasting colours. I would also like to look at portraits that do not focus on the model’s features, in order to highlight the idea that not everything is directly related to ourselves.
