Further continuing into the specialist study, I have come to the conclusion that the previous idea of photographers perspectives, etc, is not something I would like to continue into the Final Major Project as I would like to explore something with more worldly meaning and impact, therefore would make sense to change in linkage to something that links in more clarity, considering the research and referencing for this project could then be a foundation for the future contextual research, which will be undertaken within the FMP.
Initial notes/alterations to the idea in linkage to FMP -
- Photography documentation
- Photojournalism into feminism and LGBT.
- To what extent does photography capture the essence of time
- Past, present & future.
- Future, prism and Lensball photography. (possible research into artists who manipulate the frame using objects)
Change of idea -
I would like to explore the idea of photography documentation, considering how photography has reflected certain major events in the world and how the medium has documented a certain time period. These time periods may include WW2, 2nd/3rd wave feminism, political UK movements e.g Margaret Thatcher, trade propaganda with the U.K to overseas, migration, etc. How well the truth is shown through these photographs in a situation where the whole truth is needed is an interesting factor, whilst also playing with the concept of time. I plan to choose a significant time period to focus on for the final project and will currently explore how well photography captures time.
