- PROJECT TITLE
“Mirage: A Journey Through Double Exposure Film”
2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Mirage is a photographic exploration that merges the city with the rural’ view. By employing the double exposure film technique, this project aims to capture the beauty of both places and merge them together. The project will showcase a series of photos of sceneries, each a unique blend of different tempos, cultures, and obviously the view. These double-exposure film shots will allow for a rich interplay of light, shadows, and forms, blending two distinct images into one cohesive photo.
The concept behind Mirage is from my interest in capturing the essence of different views. Drawing inspiration from the works of photographers like Jerry Uelsmann, and Sarah K. Byrne, the project aims to create a dialogue between the physical and emotional worlds, connecting the viewer with the subjects on a deeper level.
