#Phonar, Assignment 1: Volume

The idea of volume came to me in scrolling through images that I've liked, and held on to, over the last year or so. I think of volume in the sense of space, filling the frame and creating stage for the subject, but also in an auditory context. All the photos selected here do both for me. The echo of a vast and vacant corridor, the deep voice of a cello behind corrugated plastic, and the shouts and crashes of waves as a fisherman takes a swing at a piñata all ring in my ears when I see these images.

Over the next months, I would like to explore the idea of volume in my own work, finding space and sound in what superficially looks like a flat, silent medium. I look forward to working with all of you to expand our boundaries and make memorable work!
