Nicole Haynes, Task #5

Sorry this is a little late being posted, but here is my Task 5 inspired by Jessica Labette. When I was on her website I saw a series of photographs labelled "Symmetry" I wanted to photograph images that were near a mirror and able to show that line of symmetry in it. I used lego blocks instead of the usual geometric shapes in her work just so it was a bit more different and had my own style to it.

Reshoot of Task #3

I really enjoyed Alex Prager's series of pictures that included things on fire. I wanted to recreate this but in a smaller version with fire by photographing my sister holding a burning piece of paper in front of her.

Re Shoot of Task #1, Nicole Haynes

The same idea as my first, I wanted to capture Old buildings surrounded by new buildings or new architecture. My first photographs were not that strong in capturing that, and a little too zoomed in and cropped to closely to get the whole effect of that. This image I found captures this better.

Re Shoot of Task #4, Nicole Haynes

This is the Re shot of Task 4. I didn't actually re shoot anything, I just used one of the images and duplicated them side by side to each other. I felt like the duplication made it have a different edge to it that I liked better, and this way the colours of the background and her face matched perfectly.

NICOLE HAYNES, TASK #4

I was really inspired by the way Olaf took photographs of models covered in paint with their whole body. I wanted to base my idea from this. I didn't want to use the dark colours he used when painting the models, I wanted the viewers to be able to see what the person looks like, and using slightly lighter colours. I also didn't want to paint the whole body, just the face. I have two different placements of these photos, let me know which one works better! Thanks :) 

NICOLE HAYNES, TASK #3

Looking through Alex's photos on her website I came across a collection she has of images that are eyes. I wanted to recreate this idea that she had. Although I'm not sure if I am happy with this idea at the moment, so I am still brainstorming for this artist.

NICOLE HAYNES, TASK #2

Amy Stein had said she "explores evolving isolation from community, culture and the environment" I wanted to capture an image where people were isolated from the rest of the community and looked like they were out of place in society. This was taken outside of the Eaton Centre, and they were young travellers asking for money so they could continue to travel.

Nicole Haynes, Task #1

After looking at Thomas Struth's work I noticed all the old cityscapes that he photographed. I also read online on a bio website about him that he had said "how do you live with history? Then I began to ask: How is history embedded in the architecture of a city?" This question that he asked himself made me branch of to my idea that I wanted to show the old architecture design of some buildings in Toronto that we may not seem to notice right away, but have withstood the modern times of the city's development. I wasn't sure if I wanted just to show the single subject of the old building by itself, or with other modern buildings around it to show the difference. I uploaded 3 different yet similiar outlooks on the idea, let me know what you guys think works best! Thanks!
