Bridge 2 – Preparatory Work

Is there a guiding theme/topic?

As of right now, most of our pictures fit within the theme of how we spend our leisure/free time. Many of the photos are random snapshots taken throughout the day.

How do materials function within the “conversation?”

In most of my and Andy’s pictures, lighting, colour, and form are either harmonious or provide a sense of bold contrast. The composition of the photo also feeds into the attitude of the image, which determines the overall feel to the pictures as a duo.

What role does coincidence play?

Coincidence is interesting as it may highlight similarities in our daily routines, or whatever it is that we might be doing at the moment of interaction.

How does working as a collaborative pair influence your work and thinking?

Working as a pair has made me more conscious of my surroundings and what I am doing, and whether or not I can take an interesting photo considering these two factors. Additionally, depending on who sends the first picture, I also take into account how it might match or clash with the accompanying response.
