Landscapes // Topography Experimentation

cs-1I carried out this photoshoot consisting of just over 30 images; it was inspired by the likes of Kyle Jeffers, Vishal Marapon and kashia_m. They are very abstract photographs that I believe can be put into the category of landscapes, however, in the ‘new topography’ style. I also edited some of the photos I thought turned out best.  It is the complete simplicity, the combination of colours and the use of lines that bring each image together as a whole to form a landscape which provoke many thoughts – this is what I wished to achieve.

After researching about the topic. I realised how attracted I was to it and how much the style appealed to me because I knew it fit my creativity just right. It allowed me to look at everyday landscapes – the things I pass everyday and look at them differently and see the corners of buildings and their lines complementing each other to form a readily perfect composition. The obscurity of the different patterns on the buildings that surround us embraces the theme of ‘new topography’. This theme will be a running recurrence throughout this project to allow each viewer to picture their surroundings in a different way.
