Alison Irwin- Novelty Redo

Novelty is something original & unusual, & this van definitely caught my eye from the side of the rode. It was originally for my 4x5 assignment but do to complications i am not able to use it & when i went back to shoot it again, it was parked in the back of this lot so i wasn't able to get it. I took digital images of everything i did so i thought this would be perfect for novelty. Let me know what you think!

Also had this before, original then crop with different placing. let me know what you think.

It's a picture of a polaroid of a polaroid camera.

The polaroid itself is the novelty. I will be handing in the polaroid itself, not a print of this, I think.

Original at top, crop at the bottom but different placement. Thoughts? Also have the yellow van for novelty too so let me know what you think.

Locrin Stewart - Novelty

Hey Class,

So for novelty, I also found the definition that it is anything new (as Alex talked about in her post about tea), but interpreted it quite differently. In my opinion, it's almost impossible to create something in art in general that is truly new, or has never been seen before. The image I created was my response to that. I partake in calligraphy, but, like pictures, it, too is limited to the confines of the letters, much like how photography is limited to what is in our surroundings, and what has come before.

The letters themselves are not perfect intentionally, because, in my opinion, the imperfections are one of the key aspects that differentiate images from one another, the small accidents.

I have a couple other pictures, and am considering straightening this one properly, but I think that the slightly off-kilter look to it adds to the "accident" kind of thing I mentioned earlier.

Feedback, as always, is greatly appreciated

Lucy Lu - Theme 5: Novelty

What makes something a novelty is ultimately subjective. Personalize or change something and present it in the right way and it becomes novel.

What do you think, less or more?
