project ideas

The Loneliest Road- documentation of the "loneliest road" in Nevada
House Churches- document house churches
Lonely Landscape- photos of places i used to explore alone when i first moved to texas,
Something further investigating the fitness language- i started a project last semester about the language of fitness, specifically that of a single individual. i only scratched at the surface so this would be more narrowed down and get at the meat of what i was trying to say
Something dealing with themes of self/racial identity
- Saunder inspired self portraits that have to do with identity
-ethnographic photos, making sets or involving measurement,grid,scientific study, example:

-others perceptions
-invented criteria
-stereotypes
-what is the role of photography in a person perception of self identity
Use photo of grandparents
Use old photos of those i know
Found photographs
Make up a narrative

buff stuff

the first video from a performance piece im doing
in this project i am attempting to do the workout routines on my boyfriends brother Colin
what attracted me to this was the aesthetic of videos he captures of himself working out
the project may be about the obsessive nature and commitment to working out.
the commitment to ones body.
recording this process.
its also about showing off on the internet

fit


from a series i did on fitting into small spaces

back


descending balloon


rooftop sunset


rainy early morning


selfportrait


i received Sylvia Plachy's book self portraits with the cows coming home
for a gift a few years ago and loved it
the book gives a feeling of value to the sentimental and private photograph
in taking this photograph i was attempting to capture this feeling
i imagine this photo being found by a relative when i am in my old age or when i have passed
and it resonating with them

i first photographed this tree outside of my home that i think is beautiful
and then noticed the same shape in south america as well as my profile
three photographs of different subject matter that are very much the same photo

black swan

Northstar mall


this moment was weird
why would a person get their teeth whitened in the mall
everyone can see
it made me sad
people in the military often are very lonely
and bored
and maybe thats why he did this
or maybe he just needed his teeth whitened

on the road

longing

its weird to be in this state
its like being paralyzed
