Test strips and reflection

So I realized that I have a ton of test strips and I need to figure out what to do with them all. I need to figure out if I want to do another art project with them or something. Here is a picture of them all:

I also just wanted to do a but of reflection from the semester. I have really enjoyed working with black and white film this semester, there are lots of things that I really liked about this class. One of the things that was challenging is that the supplies is so expensive but I don't think there is a way around that. I did a lot of my own printing for friends and family for Christmas gifts and I am really excited to see what everyone thinks.

One of the things I found interesting was the idea of fixing the pinhole photos or the 35mm photos in photo shop to take out some of the dust or other things that may have gotten on the film when really when you are thinking about film and committing to taking film photos I feel like you are committing to those blemishes and the imperfections that film photography brings and I like to embrace those imperfections.

Thanks so much for an awesome semester I have really enjoyed this class!! :)

Assignment 1 diptych

These are two film photos that I took then got developed at a local store. I really like to have prints of all of my photos because I like to have physical copies. The photo on the left is taken from the streets in Thailand in 2019 and the photo on the right is taken from the top of mount Hoffman in Kananaskis in the summer of 2021. They are on opposite ends of the earth and represent opposite vibes. One is in the city and one is in the backcountry. They are yes and no because they are opposing.

Projection project presentation

I chose to do my projection presentation on Krzysztof Wodiczko. He is a projection artist and his work revolves around activism and advocacy. Here is the link to his website: https://www.krzysztofwodiczko.com Here is the information from the project. I also did a small in class activity where my classmates had to do a short worksheet about the artist and do some of their own research.

Photo book work prints

Here I have my work prints out for the photo book. I printed about 50 colour prints and 50 black and white in the dark room. I have begun to lay them out and figure out what I want my photo book to look like.
