I had a lot of fun creating this photogram and ended up using this technique for my final prints. I liked the spontaneity of the images and my main inspiration for this was Jackson Pollock. I used a sheet of glass and placed a sheet of paper underneath. I then used a mixture of products such as shaving foam and oil and shower gel to create the desired effect.
By placing objects onto light sensitive paper and exposing it under an enlarger, I was able to create this photogram. The composition is asymmetrical because there is no symmetry in the way the objects are placed. In this way, the viewer's eye is led throughout the whole composition. The theme of fantasy and imagination is expressed in the composition because of the chosen objects which include a dream catcher, rose petals, and an old wood carving illustration of a woman.
