Title/question: The entire essay must focus on the title or question of the project. The title needs to involve the concept of photographing the invisible as well as considering the idea of memory.
-
Introduction: The introduction needs to explain the main body of what the essay is about and what it is trying to address. The beginning paragraph should contain artist movements, quotes and photographers I have taken influence from.
Ideas:
- How has Laia Abril and Yury Toroptsov shown the concept of memories and attempted to photograph the invisible?
- How can memories be demonstrated through the medium of photography?
- How are memories reflected in Laia Abril’s and Yury Toroptsov’s interpretation of the concept?
- How has Boltanski, Abril and Toroptsov represented the concept of capturing the invisible through the medium of photography?
Planning stage: How do I structure my essay? What do I want to include?
- The essay needs to follow a systematic structure, addressing the question I choose in detail. I will begin with an opening quote possibly from a philosopher or an artist I have found influential. Following the introduction will be the first paragraph and so on. There will be a topic of discussion for each paragraph, I will aim for four solid paragraphs. Finally, I will conclude the essay again referring to the question and making sure I have answered it sufficiently. The essay needs to include a quote at the beginning as I earlier stipulated, it also needs to have references from specific photographers and philosophers, it needs to show that I have thoroughly researched the chosen topic and have a variation of resources.
