Assignment 5 The Photos

Work inspired by the work of Caspar David Friedrich.

All the time I was away I planned on showing my work in a large book printed by Blurb. My tutor challenged me to learn Japanese Stab Binding and make my own book so taking control of the whole process from beginning to end.

I planned to send the finished book to my tutor but CoVid19 put a stop to this. As I returned from Antarctica the whole world was closing down. Buenos Aires and Sao Paulo were like scenes from a war film with coffee shops closing and people leaving as quickly as possible.

The problem I have of not being able to send my book to my tutor is a small one compared to the problems of others. I am glad I can find a solution to my insignificant problem by creating digital copies of my book.

My solution is to photograph the book I and send the images to show the book. I will also include the images as they are on my computer so you can see the images in more detail if you would like to. Finally, I include the contact sheets of the set of images I took with this project in mind.
