Quote 1:
"Your own body plays a role in your work both as a medium and a surface."
I got drawn by this quote because it relates to what I am currently doing, photos that focus on using myself as the object to tell the "story" through the photos.
Quote 2:
"Some of the things I like to consider when creating my work are: who is looking, and how can I get them to slow down enough to consider themselves in that gaze?"
This reminded me of when I focus on photos, I try to put myself in people's shoes and how they would see my projects and photos. I want the audience to focus on what they are seeing and enjoy it.
What inspires her?
After reading the article, I realized she got inspired by grief, happy moments, and the people around her. She focused on what people would see and how they would see it. She wanted them to slow down. Life events are more to take into account when she does her projects.
On the other hand, what inspires and motivates me when I am doing projects for most of them, they take my life events and personal events into consideration. The materials that I use are my camera, tripod, and lighting tools. For my aesthetic, I tend to be more on the black and white side, more than anything, because I see it as people taking the photos more seriously. The audience tends to take black and white photos more seriously if it's on a documentary side.
