Task 6: Final Proposal and Research

My final proposal took me a long time to write. I finally decided to write about faces and the emotional attachment to them. Everyone in life makes gestures, cues and moves their faces into positions to show how they feel. However, as humans, we have learned to move our faces into certain positions to almost “fake” our emotions. Some people smile when they really want to just break down. My images that I captured are mostly up close portraits. Each representing emotions on the outside that we show, and emotions that we are truly feeling on the inside. The feelings and emotion of insanity, sadness, anxiety, and many more, consume my images.

My images will also display a few different processing techniques. Some examples include double exposure, contrast and temperature changes, and brightness.

Methods and Materials: Camera, glass, makeup

An artist that I used as a reference to create my images was Andrea Sunder-Plassman. I really love the feelings that are captured into her portraits. She creates emotion.

Task 1: Photographer


Christopher McKenney is a conceptual photographer who specializes in horror surrealism. He is originally from Pennsylvania and most of his photos are taken there. He began his work in horror surrealism by one day finding himself in a forrest with only a sheet, a chair, and a frame. After taking some photos of himself with the sheet on him, he decided it would be interesting to photoshop his body out of the image. The reason I chose this artist was the fact that I was amazed by the feelings I felt when looking at his work. Each one of his photos creates a feeling of eeriness and uncertainty.
