"The Photographer's Eye"

"He learned that the world itself is an artist of incomparable inventiveness, and that to recognize its best works and moments, to anticipate them, to clarify them and make them permanent, requires intelligence both acute and supple."
- John Szarkowski

A Work in Progress

I decided that the subject of my collage would be a fish tank. I ended up going to PetCo and taking a bunch of pictures of the fish, rocks and greenery there. Then my work became focused on putting together the pictures so that they would make one huge tank. Here are some of the early test runs. 

The first test collage. 

Another test collage with 4x6 pictures.

Tank with 24 pictures. 

Round Two

The second semester of Think & Make began this week. The first project is a photo collage, inspired by the works of David Hockney. I especially like the organized layouts and bright blue of the above work.
