Class Generated Assignments

Multiple Exposure Prints - combine two or more negatives to create a montage effect

Focus on a subject - pick a specific subject, for example, horses, and shoot an entire roll

Reflections - photograph reflections on water, shiney objects, mirrors etc. Look for translucent and transparent objects. How is light changed?

Photographing Nature - show the collision between the natural and technical environment. How does the collision of the two seeming opposited create a synthesis and a new form? For example, the valley waterways have been altered for agriculture. How has the natural environment changed the technical form? Fences eventuall rot into the ground, can an artist create a formal image from this natural process?

Political Statement using an everyday object. Can an object become a symbol when placed in a new context?
