As a group we went on a trip to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. This was a great opportunity to not only interact with the environment myself but helped to inspire my own work in sense of place. On the trip I took photographs and sketches as we travelled around. The park gave a great sense of place using natural spaces combined with artists installed pieces to give a surreal man vs nature aesthetic overall.
I wanted to really immerse myself into the environment visually when taking photographs so often found myself looking for shadows, shapes, colours and ways to photograph. I wished to experiment with a few different techniques that were brought up in previous lessons as well as getting a start to some of my own work pieces. As part of my Sense of Place project I ensured I had a GPS tracking the routes I was travelling for the day. Here are a few unedited images I took on my journey.
The season is on my side as I get a lovely array of shades of leaves and colour in the environment. I wish to create a colour pallet of the day for my Sense of Place project and these autumn colours will play heavily into it.
