Digital Project #2


LOVE LOVE LOVED doing this project! Our objection was to take an influential event and create your own translation of this through use of photoshop and scanned images. I decide to do a general theme of "Letting Go". Previous blogs show my initial idea using a butterfly, however me and the butterfly really weren't getting along. So I decided that since my love of picture taking captures both the past and the present, I related the idea of letting go to meaning "recapturing the memory". We make and remake memories in places all the same but perhaps with different people; new friends, family etc. I believe that you will never forget,though you may wish for a dose of amnesia, but rather take it as a learning/ growing experience. I used a recent photograph of myself, the happiest I've seen myself in awhile, and played around with a few Polaroids and there ya go!! LET IT GO..whatever it may be, no it isn't easy, but after looking at this particular photograph and stepping outside of myself.. I'm on my way to creating a bigger, better me.. and that makes me happy :)
