During my exam day three, I mounted up all of my printed images onto black/white card and foam board to make several separate installations of photography to go alongside my photobook.
I had printed out my best images that were incorperated within my book with the intent to create a series of mini stories presented in diptychs and triptychs. This would allow me to create many more narratives alongside my main narrative contained inside my book. I had pre-arranged a layout that I would follow for each board in my previous lessons before the printed images came down.
The images below show the four concepts that i came up with. They are all arranged differently depending on the types of images used, the sizes of the image and what works best to allow them to fit together.
It is good to have both a physical version of the book with all my best images from the shoots I have produced as well as these four boards. Having the physical prints on a large scale, especially shown in the A3 images is very rewarding because it allows me to see my imagery on a large scale and as a series that, personally, I think has worked well. It has allowed me to construct further narratives and stories that otherwise would not have been displayed through my photobook. I used two methods to present my work seen above, one being framing and one using foam board to lift the images out to appear 3D. I think the mounted images have worked better as they reveal a cleaner and more professional look however the foam board images have allowed my landscapes to really stand out, especially the ones on the black board as it compliments the moody skies.
