So the purpose of me keeping this journal is so that i can record all of my findings in one place. I will post imagery and infomation that inspires me and helps to shape my project.
Today i came across some great images in 'Silvershotz' magazine, not only do i think the images them selfs are stunning pieces of art but i love the artists reasoning and explanation for them. The artists name is Noel Myles who creates images using photography but he doesnt like to just use single framed photographs, he photographs the same object or veiw for days, weeks or months so he has pictures of it through different seasons or in different lights, then he gathers all the pictures togeather and selects the ones to complment the image best. This is how he explains his work; "Our perception of life is continuous. As we move our eyes over the enviroment we build and store mental visual memories of what we have just seen linked seamlessly with what we are looking at now. My question was how to represent this memory of looking and thinking in a still photograph". This is a perfect explanation to the images its a very intriguing but clever concept and as a result the images are beautifull. my favourites are the images of the oak trees, i think the method works well with the branches and textures of the tree, both images have a spooky airy feel to them.
