Fragment-

Chuck Close-

This photographer uses the technique of fragments this is done by adding different textures and colours to fill In the picture. This could be used to add different moods and reactions for different people depending on how they view it. This could be used to extend the image or focus on a certain point of the image the the creator wants you to mainly see.

 

This artist also does things like this using tiny textures that without zooming in you would not be able to see as they are so tiny. This adds a sense of mystery and confusion about what you are seeing. The face that the model is using has a sense of anger and sternness, but the artist is using bright colours to balance this out.

Multiple exposure-

Tamara Lichtenstein-

 

This photographer uses multi exposure to create beautiful images with cool toned colours involved, this creates a light hearted and joyful mood. She also likes to use nature as a main part of her theme

Using natural themes as the background is done quite a bit as it can create such an incredible image. The models she uses are mostly women I believe this is done to show what is assumed as beauty.

There is a contrast between the images I chose as I assume that one shows love/romance between two people but the other creates a sense of loneliness and sadness as the models in the first image are shown to be kissing where as in the second image the model is shown to be very straight faced and has a sense of sadness.

Ink manipulation-

Dawid Gajewski-

 

This artist uses ink manipulation in a interesting way as he uses it to tell a story. From my perspective as the audience I feel as though he uses this technique to portray emotion and depression, I see this as his art is very messy which I believe is his interpretation of someones mind.

The model on the right is wearing a dark lipstick which matches the theme of darkness and sadness which allows us to feel the ‘pain’ that the model is portraying. The neutral expression on the face of the model matches this theme perfectly as it matches the theme of darkness and sadness which is portrayed in this image.

The image on the right compared to the second image uses many bright colours which I believe is connected to old age and loneliness and potentially even Alzheimer’s as the messy and destroyed nature of the piece of supports this.
