For the environment project, I wanted to focus on time and they way time is captured. I have spent alot of time thinking about the way spaces can hold memories and wanted to capture this idea. Although I did alot with photoshop, I did spend a good deal of time observing the space in the pictures. Alot of students spend time in Crossroads doing various things but mostly absorbed in their own world, so i thought this would be the perfect venue. Over a few days, I would periodically check in to this spot and snap a shot of whoever happened to be sitting there. I think it is intriguing that we hardly have anyway to know who was in a space before we happened upon it. After gathering all of my images, I used photoshop to layer all of the shots. I felt that in a way, this was eliminating the element of time as all of the figures blend together. It is interesting to me that the individuals can still be distinguised from the whole; we all have our little idiosyncrasies even if we are participating in the same actions.
