Image Bank

The above four images are by Jason Travis, a very interesting photography who I think will in used a lot within my project. Due to his work and how his individual pieces appeal to me. The images show a idea which he has used multiple times and works well. The images show a form of diptych which he uses to reflect a person and some of there items which they hold close. I like the way in which he experiments with depth of field when it comes to the way in which he photograph's the people. 

These three images show different ways to place items and reflect the belonging of an individual. I think each way has shown a different style and way to display items, in my opinion each image also helps to show peoples personally and style due to the way in which they are positioned and the background. For example, the first image would suggest the man is very organised.

I selected the following images as they are a good example of hobbies and show how people often have many items related to their hobbies. 

The selected images show people and their pets. People often have a strong bond with their pets and care for them very well. A possession can be seen as an belonging which you have responsibility for and therefore a people and their pets is a relevant topic within people and possessions. The last four images show a series which was created by Tobias Lang, a photographer which I have researched in depth during this project. 

 I like the image above because of the creative way in which it links to people and possessions. Money and small belongs are often found down the back of a sofa and people dig their hand down to find them. This image shows the opposite of this and shows the hand reaching how. This image could be interpreted to have a much deeper meaning and suggest that people can often be forgotten about and ignored like pennies at the back of the sofa. 

The photographs have been created using a variety of photographic techniques. I think these images link to people and possessions and it shows how people have emotional baggage on them which effect their life and happiness and one way which I see possessions is as a belonging which affects us. Therefore I think the images show how people have an emotional possession which effects them and they can not get rid of. 

These image represent family's and relationship with people. I think these images show people and possessions due to how it shows the belonging and responsibility which parents or family members have relating to other individuals within their family. The baby photos show some small possessions which they hold however I think it represent the possessions of the parents as the parent possessions and priority of what to buy would change from expensive clothes to nappies. People often are limited with the possessions they have due to a lack of money, by showing peoples family is displays how.
