Initial ideas!


My starting point for my coursework is ‘hidden’. So far, using a thesaurus, I have brainstormed a collection of alternative words/phrases that give the same meaning, which will hopefully give me a wider range of subjects to explore. To give this area of my work a more personal feel, and for it to include the aspect of photography that i most enjoy, I am hoping to somehow to combine my 'hidden' theme with fashion photography. The next step will be for me to start researching photographers and artists that produce work that inspires me. Using various websites and other resources i'm hoping to find some inspiration and ideas that i could re-create for the experimental section to my coursework. My initial ideas for my final piece are hidden emotions within images, where the true emotions of the model or person within the photo are not clear. Also, i think 'hidden truth' could be interesting to experiment with, possibly using subjects such as domestic or child abuse, and using photography to show that many people hide the truth from the world.
