For one of our independant tasks, we had to choose our favourite image and email it to our teacher. It could literally have been anything and by anyone. I chose my own image that i took and also used for my GCSE photography. It is a picture of a reflective metal kettle in IKEA and I chose this as my favourite, because i used it a lot durning my gcse work and i grew to love how i used the light and angle in the picture and captured the light, shape and details of the kettle, such as the reflection in it. I like that images like these you realise the small photogtaphical details in everyday simple things.

What i found interesting about Jan Svoboda's exhibition is how all his work had the name tone and colour throughout the whole room. Also, a lot of the time, images are mainly somehow framed and presented on the wall, at Svoboda's exhibition, he had a glass wall in the middle, with many of his images on it. This is interesting as due to it being transparent, i could see the images behind as well, so it created a sort of image as if the were moving. I also thought of the images on the transparent wall as transparent and less important as was interested in the images behind, whcih led me to think maybe that was Jan Svobodas idea asthe images were all similar so he wanted that sort of mening behind it.
Our task was to all individually create our own exhibition using all of the class' images. To do this, the images were printed on an A3 sheet, all the same size and i used card, scissors, glue and masking tape.I began the task by cutting out all the images neatly and then also choosing to use card so that i could score it and fold it to create a 3D room plan for my exhibition. I created 4 walls, meaning i had a square room. I wanted to create a room because after looking at all the pictures and trying to place them together on certain walls, i realised that every picture kind of can represent a memory to some as they all have meaning. Therefore for my exhibition, i focused it around it being a room full of the worst memories that you will leave behind once you have left the room. This lead to my exhibition being called 'leave it behind'. I put some images together because i thought of how they could link together to make a certain memory for someone. I wanted it to be abstract and imaginitive. I made it a open box shape so it followed a certian way so that once you walk away, you cannot go back to it to create the sort of 'leaving it behind' feeling.
It took a few rearrangements to get my final outcome of where the pictures are, however i really like the end product.If i were to do this task differently, i would create a bigger space|( more walls/rooms) as it was difficult to find space to fit all of the images in, so with less images it wld be more organised with a chance to think about each image individually without the clutter of 3 others too.Through this task i have learnt how the positioning of each image is actually really important as it can create a whole different atmosphere or mood.
