coming to an end...

I am very glad (and relieved) at how well our exhibition turned out! It was great working with everyone. Normally group projects don't go over very well and I am glad that was not the case with us. =] And as stressful as it all was, I can say that I am glad to have gotten the experience before actually going through the process for capstone. I will feel a little bit more confident in it all next semester.

While none of my images actually sold, I had a friend who was interested in working something out with me in the near future for him to use the images in his psychology teaching. Apparently, the subject matter of my series directly relates to the ideas discussed in his field of study. So, I am pretty excited about that opportunity.

As far as my 2nd project is concerned, I have been working on a grid system for displaying the images. Here's an unfinished example (missing the final three images) of what I am working on:

I am going to be rushing to finish shooting my images this weekend, but what would finals week be if not for frantic-ness? (I am still awaiting my end-of-semester-meltdown, though. I have yet to have one.) While I originally intended to have 3 narratives for the project and then later discussed with David that such a thing may not be possible this semester and I should narrow my focus down to one, I am going to attempt to complete the 2 narratives I have been working on throughout the semester. And then for capstone, I think I want a total of 4 or 5 narratives in grid format to show. I think the main focus of my summer will go to finding ways to create the narratives in distinctly different manners as to not become repetitive in my portrayals of the victims.
