Is Photography Over?

I feel like it is quite aggressive to say if photography is over or not. Photography has become widely used as a 'recording device' in the world at this point. However, like what the article states, photography might be over, and it might be just the beginning, depending on how you would define photography and/or art. Personally, I think photography is definitely not over. There are so much you can do with wide variety of cameras and collaboration with the multimedia/new technology.Who knows if there will be a ground breaking technology or new medium we will be able to interact with that would change the entire art world just like it did when the first cameras came out during avant garde and impressionism period (or after digital cameras/color printers).

New Ideas 1

Lori Nix is a photographer who specializes in constructing dioramas and photographing the results. Her works are unique in a way where she constructs her own subject matter rather than going out to find it. I just love the fact that these photographs are results of interdisciplinary work of art. It is incredible how detailed the scenes are and that you are not limited to photograph the subject matter only when you find them. This is one idea. I would love to try out new and experimentational methods of photography.

Old work 1

This body of work illustrates exploration of ego and self loving. Every once in a while, people imagine and wish to have a twin, or a clone of themselves as their best friend, or even a lover because theoretically myself would understand me the best. 

We constantly struggle and hope for others to understand us.  I think maybe the first step is to love and understand myself. How are we going to be loved by others when you do not know how to love yourself?

I finished this work during my introduction to photography class three semesters ago on a project called 'fabricated reality'. I created my own method to blend two separate photos together as one. The entire process was done manually in a darkroom environment.

I later found out that similar method has been done by Jerry Uelsmann.
