Research pt 2.

Hello, 
In the post below I would like to present part 2 of the research I claimed during creating my project.

The second character that inspired me is the artist Eunique Deeann. She is a poet and photographer, on her website we can read that "Eunique Deeann is a writer, visual artist + facilitator exploring the breakdown of human connection through lived experiences, photography, and connection facilitation." Deeann (2019).






My attention was caught by the "bodies" project, in which she shows the body in a very natural way, with all the imperfections and folds of fat, which shows what I would like to present through my project. Deeann's photos are of different proportions, each is unique in its own way. The lighting and shadows in each picture play a different role. Most of the photos are black and white, however, the author also posted several photos in colour.





In this photo we can see that it is well lit. The woman's back is the brightest part of the picture. It seems to me that it can be daylight because we can not see a strong shadow in the form. The darker places in the photo perfectly show the hollows and bulges of the skin. This photo is not perfectly symmetrical, which probably shows the author's idea that nobody is perfect.



This photograph of the author shows the naked body of a white woman with stretch marks that play a significant role and shows how beautiful the body can be despite having it. The body is pluck and the lines formed by stretch marks are a drawing. I once heard a comparison of stretch marks to tiger stripes and I liked it very much.
This photo is heavily lit, we can only see the woman's body. We do not see any shadows except those that are visible on the model's leg and stomach. Which focuses on the character and does not catch the eye to the background



The last photo I discuss in this post is a photo showing a close shot of part of the torso and thigh. The photo, although with a fairly strong zoom, perfectly shows the detail of the skin and its structure. The body is illuminated in such a way as to obtain the depth of the folds of fat folds formed. The body, despite all this, is not visible, seems a slim woman, which shows that everyone, even the thinnest man, when he bends, will have folds formed even by fat, but by the skin itself, which in reality look like waves at sea.

Pictures created by Eunique Deeann are my great inspiration in its simplicity but also a great message. Her photographs are something that I would like to achieve myself and I hope that I will succeed.
