What is the concept driving your thesis project at this point in the semester? Has your concept changed since the beginning of the semester? If so, describe the changes?
At this point, my concept is still to create juxtapositions between fragility and destruction as a reflection on the transition from childhood innocence to an adult view of the world. My concept has a changed a bit in that I'm not directly sourcing children's books or a particular narrative
How has your process of experimentation and image creation throughout the semester expanded, redirected, altered, or tightened your concept?
My concept has redirected focus as a result of my experimentation with flames, smoke, etc. I think my concept is more broad in that I'm not limited myself to pre-existing story lines but I know I need to work harder to either make series that tell a story or have single images that portray a narrative.
How has your process of experimentation and image creation throughout the semester affected the visual aspects of your work?
My experimentation with destructive processes, smoke, and fire has lead me to focus more on the temporal aspect of my project and on the moments captured in transition. I plan to keep experimenting with smoke, and hopefully projections, over the next few weeks.
Describe how the visual aspects of your project align with the content and concept of your project. Are there ways in which they seem contrary to your concept? How might you tackle this misalignment?
I think that my images fit conceptually because they rely heavily on the delicate nature of the sets and destructive nature of the smoke and fire. They are moments that cannot be repeated or reproduced. I do need to work to create a story line for these ideas.
