This project challenged us by requiring that we deconstruct our South Congress photographs and create something new with them. I decided to go at the project from a few different angles, including geometric shapes being glued in no particular order in no particular shape. I had a lot of fun getting out of the box with these collages, and found myself doing scary things I would have never chosen to do at home. I flexed my finger muscles stabbing hundreds of holes into an image and stringing sewing thread into the details of the image. I think this has been one of my favorite projects so far, and I am starting to think I will be exploring collage much deeper in my personal art at home.
I took scans of my hair on the scanner bed as well as scanning some cool trash I found on south congress between Lucky Robot and American Apparel. I enjoy the darkness of the hair scans because they contrast greatly from the images I took on South Congress.
