Assignment 1: Concept for project based on "The Gleaners and I" due 2/5

various pictures of seemingly benign things that actually have a deeper meaning (probably old hockey equipment or something up north)

Something to do with age and how we cast out things because of it

I was thinking of maybe taking pictures of things left in front of properties that no longer have use for them but maybe have a use for someone else (like refrigerators, shelves, chairs, etc.). If I cannot find anything to photograph I might do some digital art piece displaying something similar.

Im gonna try to make something out of the clock without it hands.

Something related to how people throw out perfectly good things.

I was thinking of trying to recreate a famous piece of art with random objects. As a back up I wanted to do a similar thing just without the famous piece.

THIS IS A QUICK SKETCH, FINAL PRODUCT WILL BE A PHOTO



This weekend, I plan on taking a picture of some trash bags (maybe having me or my brother throw some in the picture) and have one open and spilled. In that bag, I'll have some shiny, possibly useful object sticking out and stand out compared to the rest of the picture. The idea here is to show that while one person may see something as trash, it could possibly be valuable to someone else.

... don't grade that picture please, I can do better.  

i was maybe thinking of a city very busy with people walking it would be grayscale then a object that stands out with a person going to pick it up that has color than the rest.

Its pretty cliche but oh well

I'm going to take pictures of different objects that are considered trash and use them to create an object from the film. Such as a cat, trash can, a fridge, etc.

I was thinking about making some sort of jewelry or abstract-esque piece out of gears from watches that I've taken apart

I was thinking that maybe I can go to the dumpster a few houses away from me look at what people have thrown away and take photos of what I think that shouldn't be in that dumpster as trash while they might think it should be trash

Probably do something about how people can waste perfectly good things that can still be used.

i might draw a sac of potatoes and insert pictures that i take of like junk or trash or something and combine the t2 or i might take a picture of potatoes but idk yet

I'm going to take pictures of old things thrown out by neighbors or something, take pictures of things I never use or some stuff my family never uses that just lays around the house, and somehow merge them all together to make something.

i was thinking the painting in the movie with a heart shaped potato with a fist crushing it

I was going to make a lots of broken t.v.es and turn it into a graveyard

A collage of a bird, made up of parts of birds, junk, a potato, and hopefully a dancing lens cap if I can fit it in.
