Title: Disparity
Project Description:
For my final project, I will be exploring the juxtaposition between Nature and Artificiality by using the juxtaposition between Black & White and Color. This will be achieved by using Photoshop to create a color isolation effect. I have wanted to do color isolation at some point in this class, but was unable to use it in previous projects. Color isolation works well with the theme of this project, allowing me to make use of it effectively.
Photos will be taken in color, with black & white added using Photoshop. The photos will be of natural objects (such as plants) in artificial environments (such as a house) and vice versa. Natural objects will retain their color while artificial objects will have their color removed, creating a greater contrast between them. The viewer’s attention will be drawn to the object whose color mode does not match up with the environment it is occupying.
Outcomes:
4×6 Photographs (amount unspecified) on poster board. This is subject to change.
