Image of God

alone was not always able to adequately capture information that extended beyond the documentary photochemical capabilities of photography. Concerned about the loss of connection between the camera and the information that lay beyond the captured image and surface impressions, Williams experimented with opening the messages of documented historical moments through skewed perspective same scene collages, leading to her evolution of the mixed-media artwork that includes Accused/Blowtorch/Padlock…

the video, I will be focusing on the Sally Mann art work which I find very interesting to look. Sally Mann use of glass plate handled on the spot bring the image nearly immediate flaws that result from hand coating the collodion emulsion on each piece of glass- streaks, drips, uneven surface, and edges. She shoots under the sun overexpose her image however she tries to take perfect picture at the same time, she embraces the accidents that actually make the picture faultless and spontaneous.…

Martin’s paint strokes all seem to move in many directions to create the image of waves. This type of line may also give the audience a feeling of chaos, which is exactly what is occurring in the painting. By using line, Martin also paints the city as it is before the storm destroys it building by building. One thing that line…

including photography, painting, music, and sculpture just to name a few. Given that, there is art if film, but an ongoing debate questions whether film itself can be conceived as an art form at all. All films at their bare minimum are photographic images being shown in a rapid succession to give the appearance of movement. André Bazin believes that photography holds a place in the category of the 'plastic arts ' along with paintings, and sculptures, in that photography is an art form. On the…

picture perfect shot for the camera. No wonder why food ads appear one-hundred percent better than reality. How do people not realize they’re being lied to straight to their faces by food ads? The answer is photography. The art of capturing the perfect image has evolved from the unscripted Kodak moment to the fake, scripted Hollywood moments people see on TV every day. People can manipulate pictures at the push of a button in today’s culture so why not alter the way food is photographed too. By…

People are inundated with large amounts of images on the daily based that they are more willing to skim through images rather that look and examine the possible situations presented. The artist made an attempt to put the pictures in a different context and hold the viewers attention much like a painting would. At first I did what most people do when it comes to digital images, I took a quick glance and kept looking, it was only on the second walk around did…

women photographers and scientist alike. This process, of documenting ferns, allowed people to understand what they looked like, size and scale, giving proof to science and the botanist community on their existence and important documentary need. Her images allowed for women, in her time, to see that there was more to photography then just a portrait shot - also giving women a real stand alone place in a field, science and photography,…

has drastically changed throughout the years. It used to take a ton of heavy equipment in order to take a decent photo. Not only would it take lots of work, but also lots of patients to wait for the photo to develop so that the person can see the image. Now it only takes a smartphone to take a good quality photo and it is not as complicated as it was years ago. Photography was mainly used to record memories and was not for social use. The only people that would be able to see these photos were…

Currie argues that a process of subconscious remediation occurs in film, between reality and illusion, the outcome of which is an understanding that the images on screen are captured and manipulated.7 Braking a film up into still images and examining a single shot “blurs the boundar[ies]” to the extent where the illusionistic element is lost and the image becomes like a photograph, embodying the ‘window on the world’ ideology.8 Outside of cinema, art films provide another complication. The…

It was taken almost 20 years ago with what is now a very old-fashioned instant camera. There are also some images that I kept from an old calendar all over my room, mostly beach pictures. I absolutely love the beach. I love the sunsets and sunrises, the waves and the birds. I think it is very interesting how angles, symmetry, and lighting can make a huge difference…
