final concept 1

My series is about dealing and coping with your weaknesses. It originally started as just showing weaknesses and then I expanded onto how people should deal with it then I went into how people actually deal with it and I interviewed people and asked and then I used how they deal with it as my photos. I was trying to show also the emotions through the photos and it was difficult but I think the emotion came through better than I thought. For my first photo I have Alli in her middle splits and also have her hiding behind a pole and hiding her face and this represents her being embarrassed and having her hide. The second photo is of my arm with fake blood running down it to create the illusion of cutting. I did this one through personal experience and I am showing depression through this because again of my personal experience. The third one is of my little sister and she is praying on my bench with photos everywhere. This is showing her sadness of loosing someone close and her praying is how she is dealing with it. The fourth picture is of Lilli punching her pillow. When I asked her how she deals with her anger this is what she told me so I took pictures of her punching her pillow to show how she deals with the anger. For the fifth and final photo I took photos of Lilli acting like she is going to throw up in the toilet. I did this one out of personal experience again. This one illustrates showing depression again and just showing herself reflection and her inner issues of not being accepted into society. The photos go well with showing of peoples personal issues and how they deal with them.
