Task 1 – Noticing

This series of noticing is based on colours, it’s about when two different objects incidentally came together and noticing the colours on these two objects were overlapping or matching one another. The collection of noticing will be in a photographic form as the moment is more visible in a photograph instead of a continuing moment.  In the class time when everyone was choosing a concept for their collection of noticing, I noticed my sleeve matches with the table and my new nails colour are very similar to my laptop stickers, so I captured this down and decided to focus on this direction.

  • Are there any similarities or patterns between your pieces of media?

When photographs were collected or captured seperately, I believe that most of us won’t notice there is any link in between or we might never even thought about it. After the exhibition, I was very inspired and also linking back to task one, I think what Patrick Pound wanted to deliver through out these collections was that when photographs (crafts) were brought together, the alignment will sort of push the viewer to start to find if there is a common point of every photograph. After I have listed my collections together, I noticed there were similarities, repetition between them other than colours.  

First, is the surface of every subject I captured in my photographs were kept changing, they were never repeated. Secondly, shapes – is something that kept repeating through out each of my photographs but I have never noticed. I discovered this repetition when we were sharing our collection in a group, one of my group members has written down the first thing she noticed in my photographs was shapes.

  • List what you notice when looking/listening back to your media.

There was only one thing that I noticed when I went back to look at my collections, the first four photographs were taken with big colour patterns, the colours were very obvious and vivid, they were even based upon a colourful background. Although when the time came closer to the due date, the colour patterns in the last two photographs were very small that viewer might not noticed just by looking for the first time.
