Final outcomes

Photo Zine

A zine is a collection of original images presented together in a small booklet, usually between 16 and 20 pages in length. The photos it contains mostly have links to a similar subject throughout. Numerous artists have produced a product like this or similar.

Photo Sculpture

For my photo-sculpture, my initial idea was a six-sided cube with each side featuring a different image of a rock. To produce this cube, I measured out six 10cm x 10cm squares on a sheet of foamboard. I used a bevel cutter along the edges to provide the 45° angled slopes that I needed for the sides to fit together properly. I had all six ready to connect at the end of one lesson, however when I returned the next day, three of them had become damaged somehow. I attached the three remaining faces together using masking tape to produce half of the cube, but then decided to treat this as a trial run so I could learn the process. I proceeded to then cut out some more squares from the foamboard. This time however, I made them 20cm x 20cm. After I had made three of these enlarged faces, I attached them in the same way I had done with the previous cube. This left me with two half-cubes, which I discovered could be arranged in several interesting ways. I printed out some images and glued them to the inside faces of the cubes, and I believe that the final product was rather intriguing.

Photo Mount

This is my main final product, an A1-size piece of card with my images placed in window mounts.
