Week Four: Reflection - MA Photographic Journey

Interesting to see the views within the forum. I feel that the range of ideas show that people have engaged with the image and co-authored the image contents. The range of suggestions, maps, aerial images, dunes and roads through to pure abstract and microscopic. This is the intention of the work to produce images that individuals engage to bring it to life.

One comment that did resonate was the display of the image and its requirement to be on the wall and large. This is something that I have often envisaged as being a requirement for the display.

I feel that as a practitioner that any engagement is always greatly appreciated, however in the setting of the forum it is difficult to establish the level of interest. Would individuals choose to look or is it because they are provided the image experience.

In the reverse situation, to experience other images without pre-information provided insight into how my own reading being off and very narrow, looking at the technical to get the meaning. Reminding me of the simplistic game show Catchphrase – “Say What you See!”. This is something I am working on and will expand with a more diverse selection of image viewing.

There are several red dots top left quarter. These dots are not artefacts so as part of the structure I left them in the image. These were picked up in the viewings and I perceived them to enhance the image.
