Negative Space Series Draft #2

In my second negative space draft, I focused more on the idea of capturing the creation of art. I decided to  experiment with the relationship between human qualities and art, rather than a central focus on street art. I noticed that in this series, I was more successful in incorporating negative space and portraying naturalism instead of staged photography. In my next series, I may want to explore a different style of negative space and then decide which technique/style works best with negative space photography.

Negative Space Series Draft #1

In my Negative Space Personal Series, I focus on the relationship between human qualities and architecture in a city life. In my previous assignment I focused more on nature and simplicity through negative space, but I think adding human qualities conveys different emotions in every image. When striving to capture negative space, I was also curious to experiment with shadows and lighting creating different color tones in the background.

Negative Space Series

In my Negative Space Series, I primarily strived to capture the relationship between nature and architecture conveying a more simple and calm mood in a city. All my images are set in black and white allowing the viewer to focus more on shapes and patterns rather than the direct detail of every subject. This was an interesting assignment that allowed me to further explore my interest in capturing street treasures, but at the same time challenge myself to incorporate negative space. Although the last image in this series does not directly correlate with the rest of this cohesive set, I though it would be interesting to add a different style of negative space photography.
