A Formal Concern: Design in Presentation

For our third print assignment, we will focus on how the final presentation of a photographic artwork can help communicate an idea. Your final presentation of "A Formal Concern" will need to demonstrate your chosen principle of design, and avoid simply printing two prints and matting them next to one another.

Problem: Create a photographic work that illustrates a principle of design through your choice of subject matter and presentation. Your final work must include imagery from at least two different negatives from "a formal concern" shooting assignment, although you may use more.

We will critique your final presentation (not matted necessarily, but taped together or hung in the style of your choosing) on Thurs. Nov. 6th.

Below I've included a slideshow of photographers who use alternative ways of presenting their work to help communicate an idea or concept. Take a look to help you gather ideas for how you will present yours...
