During this workshop, we learned the importance of the sequencing of images in order the tell a story. Some of the images I will take may be simplistic on their own but make more sense when partnered with another image.
Above are two examples of a sequence of images by Duane Michals. Changing the order of the images would change the narrative which is why it is important to get the sequence right.
In my project, I want to capture the signs of living such as things people leave behind on the streets or everyday tasks that they complete. For example, clothes hanging out on a washing line is a sign of life as it shows that someone is living there but you don’t know anything about this person.
The theme will not be clear if I choose to partner the wrong images, therefore I want to sequence my images on their pages based on the different aspects of life.
