Art Statement
This show, I am showing off portrait photography showcased in a magazine. Within the magazine there is advice and stories about the subjects props. The magazine is relatively minimalistic and geometric with the layout. I got lots of influence from an Atlanta based photography named Gunner Stahl. Stahl photographs many celebrities mostly music artists he has made a photo book simply named Portraits. I got lots of inspiration from this photo book with the simple layout and design. The idea for the stories came from a TikTok creator named Hunter Prosper. With this project and year I realized that I am talented with photography and design however, I am still learning. My favourite pieces this year are all of my photography especially my Calgary pieces because I got to experiment a lot and they turned out to be really good. You can clearly see my style and photos evolve from my first Rowley pieces to my Calgary pieces. I would have chose a piece more artistic and expressive of myself with more meanings that are important to myself. I am surprised on how fast some sections of the piece went faster than others. The photography and editing went really quick but the transcribing went very slow. Overall it was a fun experience however I want to make more artistic and expressive art in the future.
