supei's Digi-ImagingXperience

So excited about the final project because I get to do montage again. Realised that I actually like to manipulate photos to bring out my ideas and concepts than doing straight photography. Guess straight photography is so much harder. It requires great knowledge on where to take what kind of photos that is intended, and one can really just station there for ages for the right weather, right opportunity and timing. Not quite an expert that I could convey my concepts and ideas just by mere straight photography. Shall train and practice more though. But for final project I guess I should still do what I like best and that best represent me and my style.

Theme: Look into the ordinary
Concept: Feminism
Ideas:

- Daily objects such as TV, TV program, knives being masculine
- Superimpose the objects onto male/female bodies, putting emphasis on the objects and the body parts
- Objectify the body parts like what commercials does, also critiquing on how media is objectifying people and reinforcing patriarchal norms

- Specific idea (1): superimpose TV onto full naked male body
- Specific idea (2): female in kitchen preparing food, holding the knife that is symbolic of male phallus etc.
- Specific idea (3): a pair of female legs amongst a 'forest' of male legs, with the female wearing red high heels and the male with typical black leather shoes
