Assignment 06
Our last assignment is on Conceptual Portraiture. I was really looking forward to this assignment so much because we get to express our creativity through abstract concepts on the theme, "Looking into the Ordinary". I've always like the idea of how different interpretations can come from a single picture.
For this assignment, i have decided to do on the "7 Deadly Sins". I vividly remembered watching e show "Se7en" acted by Brad Pitt and Morgan Freeman and was intrigued by it. The plot was about how a serial killer performed his murders which were inspired by the seven deadly sins. Ever since the show i got very fascinated with the theme.
To that i decided to do a totally different approach on this theme since we are expected to do conceptual photography. My thought process goes along innocence vs sinned so i decided to show this using colours. I planned for the person to be wearing white to represent the state of innocence and purity. For the "sins" i have decided to use coloured cloth wrapped and twined strategically around the model to "taint" the clean state of a person.
~WRATH~
Whenever one gets angry, it can sometimes be overwhelming. When anger consumes you, you get out of control.
~SLOTH~
A feeling of laziness and unwillingness, a sense of dependence to one's surrounding. An unmotivated effort to get by with life.
~LUST~
As one succumbs to the seduction of lust and desire, one gets obsessed and gets hooked to the sexual compulsions. And when it gets too intense, eventually the obsession is fatal.
~GLUTTONY~
Over-consumption and over-indulgence will eventually cause one to gag and choke due to the loss of self control over food and wasting excessively.
~AVARICE~
In the search of wealth, it seems to be never enough. One has more than enough and yet always inthe state of wanting more.
~PRIDE~
Always in the state to flaunt one's power, beauty or strength, one gets hazy in the mind and is filled with pretention.
~ENVY~
Blinded by jealousy, one would resent another and hopes to get whateve one is lacking.
