Friday 20 April

In today's session I have sawn the board down to emphasise the arrangement of the photographs. As I had printed one of the yellow circles over the photograph and an area of the board in which I was going to remove, I would need to see the outcome after cutting to see if I needed to add anymore incomplete prints. After I cut the board, I decided that adding anymore yellow prints wasn't necessary as this would overcomplicate the composition as there would be too many marks in the very foreground. To give the composition a cleaner finish, I sanded down the edges that had been cut with sandpaper and repainted the edges with black paint. I then hung my completed final outcome on the wall. I did this using nails by trapping the board between the head of the nail and the wall so that I didn't put any holes in my final outcome.
After I had hung the final outcome on the wall, I looked at it from afar to gage how it appeared from a distance. I found that the dark background is quite intense and so that vivid colour in the foreground contrasts this well. Also, the straight structure of the board and the photographs contrasts the round prints in the foreground. There is a division between a rigid mood in the background and a more expressive mood in the foreground and so this represents my concept of leaving others expectations of yourself behind and exploring your own individuality through challenging your stereotype.
