Project 1: PLACE

For this project we have to photograph a place of our interest and begin to set up a narrative through a series of at least 4 photos.

The place I have chosen is the children's playground within suburbia, specifically Johnsonville Children's Memorial Park.



The interesting things I associate with a playground are the smiple colours and shapes that make up the structure of a play area. These bright colours reflect a sense of happiness, innocence and general optimistic view of the world and life. The simplicity of the colourful shapes frame a small and joyous world of the children who use this space. I intend to capture the place in a series of frames depicting this joyous world located within the suburbs. I view suburbs as a place of life and community, that is a sort of wider world compared with a playground.

Below is a set of initial shots of this concept:
