Vision

In this set of photographs, I want the audience to feel a sense of awe and wonder as they witness Beijing’s captivating structures and contemporary architecture. In this set, I will be editing photos from my set 1 photos to make them look more intense and with more contrast. Through the use of black and white photography, I aim to create a timeless and dramatic atmosphere that emphasizes the intricate details and forms of the buildings. By photoshopping the photos, the Achetecure will be more emphasized. Ultimately, my photography project aims to inspire a deeper appreciation for the beauty and significance of Beijing’s architecture and environment and the evolving world around us.

Statement of Intent

Since it’s a build-up of the previous set, they will look similar. The title of my project is “Structures of Beijing.” Through this photography project, I aim to invite my audience to feel a profound sense of awe, curiosity, and appreciation for the architectural wonders of Beijing. Taking inspiration from the works of architectural photographer and editor, Joel Tjintjelaar, my photography project in Beijing strives to evoke a profound sense of admiration and reverence in the audience. Like Tjintjelaar, I will utilize the black-and-white color scheme to amplify the timeless beauty and contrasts of the structures and use Photoshop editing to create a larger contrast between the structure and the environment. I will develop my ideas by looking at edited photos that bring strong feelings to the audience. I will also get inspiration from fascinating-edited structure photos, and learn how they edit the details of light and shadows.  Similarly to set 1, my aim is to unveil the unique perspective within each structure, inviting viewers to reflect on the cultural and environmental significance of these architectures and to let the audience appreciate the beauty and importance of Beijing’s architecture.
