Like every good art student I did a reversed reference to David's Death of Marat. How Neo-Neo Classic:
This was a fun shoot and it's the first time I have put something up on the wall during a crit that I didn't think was garbage. Essentially, what we talked about in class is that there are two types of photographers: hunters and farmers.
I am not a hunter. I grow my own shit. Still, I have a hunter mentality that kicks in by storing images in my head through experience, film, literature and other art. It's good stuff and it's a huge breakthrough. I always looked at photographers (at least in the art world) as hunters and said to myself "That's no place for me"
Boy was I wrong. I loved doing this. It's not a new idea to be a farmer but to me it is. I can't wait to plant some more crops.
