Image 1:
Experimenting with what happens when something is flipped - does it become abstract? Can viewers still tell what it is?
This is the first image - right way up.

Week 1: Proposal
Informal Proposition
Topic:
‘The whole is greater than the sum of its parts’ Aristotle
I want to investigate this quote by reading how other people interpret this, and finding images which inspire me in terms of how I wish to approach this. My aim is to produce aseries of images in which I isolate parts of the body. Eventually I want to display them next to each other as a whole. At the moment I am thinking to shoot in square format, and presenting my images as black and white. Not sure yet whether I will photograph the same person (whole = person), or different people (whole = humanity). Also not sure what to name the series or whether to provide the description, (ie just the quote, nothing else) or whether to let the viewer interpret the image however they see it.
