Project 5 - the constructed image




The constructed image is a scene that the one photographing has influenced or created in some way, or all together.

For my constructed images, I chose to create small scenes that showed a pairing of subject matter, that linked the two objects in each photograph - but in the linkage, the different characteristics of each paired item more strongly contrasted the item next to it.
Toothpicks clean your teeth, and q-tips clean your ears - both cleaning utensils, similar in size and shape, however if one were to mistaken one for the other, it could be ineffective, or devastating. While you may use a knife and a spoon during a meal, you cannot cut a steak with a spoon, nor can you eat a bowl of jello with a knife.

The differences between similarity is best seen through their unity. It's only in union -perfection- when an item's flaws shine the brightest.
