Week 3 - Lost and Fond Inspiration

Marcel Duchamp - Takes a more literal approach to the lost and found theme with his famous piece 'Fountain' 1917. He found a porcelain urinal, singed his name on it and called it art.
 
 
I do however like his minimal colour palette. 

 Just like Diane Arbus's minimal colour palette. I love how she is able to express so much emotion with her colour palette. Her photography is more in the direction I would like to go with the Lost and Found theme. 
 
My own personal journey from being lost inside to finding myself, images that convey the emotions I felt during a difficult part of my life. From a state of loneliness and depression, on a journey to found and to belong.
 
' I really believe there are things nobody would see if I didn't photograph them'. Diane Arbus
 
 

 
 
I'm also influenced by Monet's Impression, Sunrise as I would like to create emphasis in my final pieces though the use of colour and saturation.
