Contemporary Photography


I have taken Contemporary Photography before - at least two times.  Each time I take the course I am a bit less confused.  This time we are reading Charlotte Cotton's The Photograph as Contemporary Art which is pretty interesting.  We were introduced to the website Learning to Love You More and were given the assignment to photograph under our beds????.



So this is what it looks like under my bed...   it's a storage closet.  My bed hides a huge mat cutter that I need to learn to use (so I don't  spend all my little dollars with my local framer), some ankle weights I plan to use again - one day,  a yoga mat, I have never used, and the mirror from my grandmother's chest wrapped in a black plastic trash bag.  (It is too beautiful to throw away and I have no where to hang it - yet.)   Doesn't look much like "art" to me.

This is a bit more like art - a narrative to be sure.
