Medium: Photography Date: November 2022 Exhibition Text The intention behind this photograph is to raw capture what urban areas look like. I was inspired to do this by Eugene Atget, he captured similar style photography in Paris. This piece was created with my camera on my phone and some color editing on Photoshop to add contrast. The piece is supposed to capture the structure of the building as well. |
Similarities
A similarity between my work and Eugene Atgets is the movement. In both Porte Cluny and Hotel Boisgelin he takes the photo from a vertical. This angle allows the eye to move up and down along the photo rather in another direction. Same with mine even though the building is on an angle the picture is taken from a vertical shot which allows the eyes to move in that way.

Differences
Although I tried to simulate the color in Eugene Atget's photos they are very different. My black and white photo was edited to make it appear that way while Atget could only capture in black and white. The black in mine is more harsh, a deep, more a true black while his is a much softer warmer tone.
