Post 6: Re-Mix


This is a photograph goes against conventional ideas of what photography is. This image shows a photo within a photo and also plays with different techniques. The idea behind this image is to focus on a small part of a greater picture. These photographs are of the same scene but presented within one another to show depth as well as focus and color. 

A typical photograph would simply depict any scene with a single shot photo that focuses on one subject. However, the blending of the same picture onto another plays with the viewers emotions and seems to make them step back and look at the picture as a whole. Not only was the technique manipulated, but so were the colors. The image in the foreground is in color while the background image is black and white. The purpose of this is to show how photographs can easily be altered to fit the artists desires. Therefore proving that photography is not always real and it could easily be manipulated in any way.
