For my project I decided to explore imagination in a more illustrative way. My goal for this project was to first attract the viewer by using the technique of photo montage and then to make the viewer process the image in greater detail. By doing this I am able to draw attention to important issues including teen suicide, and mistreatment of animals, while also expressing my pure imagination. Although this was meant to be a photography project I wanted to express my passion for drawing as well. Therefore I had to take many photos for the concepts that I wanted to pursue and then begin creating the doodle for the specific image. My imagination cannot be fully expressed through photos or drawings exclusively, and I hope for my viewers to wonder about the greater issues I am trying to portray.
