TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES-
As you might know I am still having some difficulties- both power outages and spinning wheels of death. It is most likely because I have too many large photos on my desk top.
So I give you this image of the mom raccoon who lives in one of my trees who has 4 babies. I am not a nature photographer but I enjoyed trying. It was taken with my DSLR (a Nikon D810 lens 70-300mm). My photos from my phone were awful!

Your last image for this class will be one in which you express something that you believe to be an injustice that you would like to see changed. You will need to take a picture or pictures in which you feel it expresses this change. The images will need to include TEXT either in the picture or text you add with Photoshop or Photopea.com.
The intent of Project 17 is to give everyone one a voice through the lens of Social Justice. The guidelines to this Project is as follows:
No intentional exclusion (focus on the group you are promoting)
No harm
No violence
Show respectful for all
Common themes for Social Justice are:
unfair labor practices, racial discrimination, discrimination due to gender, orientation, ethnicity and age but are not limited to this.
Please contact me with any concerns or your process if you get stuck.
Her work uses PostModern Principles- Recontextualization, Text & Image and Appropriation (the photos are not hers).
Recontextualization
Positioning familiar imagery in relation to pictures, symbols, or texts that it is not usually associate with. A process that extracts text, signs or meaning from its original context in order to introduce it into another context. Since the meaning of texts and signs depend on their context, recontexturaliation implies a change in the communicative purpose to.

Text and Image
Creating meaning through the combined interplay of text and imagery. Artists working in this style often combine images and text that don't obviously go together. This results in a piece of work that build meaning that is beyond the text and image alone. Combined they create a stronger meaning.

Appropriation
To appropriate is to borrow. Borrowing imagery from historical and mass media sources, such as found photos and advertising. Through the act of borrowing, the artist manipulates, adds to. Appropriation is the practice of creating a new work by taking a pre-existing image from another context—art history, advertising, the media—and combining that appropriated image with new ones. Or, a well-known artwork by someone else may be represented as the appropriator’s own. Such borrowings can be regarded as the two-dimensional equivalent of the found object. But instead of, say, incorporating that “found” image into a new collage, the postmodern appropriator redraws, repaints, or rephotographs it. This provocative act of taking possession flouts the modernist reverence for originality.

The past week or so has been rather active. We have seen the power of Photography working to inform or to incite- depending on the perspective. That is what makes Photography magical and tragic. Please find your truth in all that you are exposed to.
The Skyline Counseling Team will be offering sessions for students to have an open space to talk about and/or get support for at least the rest of the week from 2-3pm on the recent events going on in our nation. The google meet is: meet.google.com/wxh-ikqo-

Just sharing a resource you might like:
Check out the Getty Museum- Getty Unshuttered App
https://www.unshuttered.org/
https://www.weareteachers.com/photo-sharing-app/
Artists are activists.
Artists are powerful. A force to be reckoned with. It’s a simple equation: more art, better world.
Getty Unshuttered is a free photo sharing app from the Getty Museum. It’s built to be a positive community for teen artists to raise their voices for social good. To inspire each other. To grow as artists.
What are you passionate about? What do you want to change? Snap it. Share it. Energize others to act. That’s a virtuous cycle, right?
Creating meaning in a time of social isolation
For young people, Getty Unshuttered can fulfill an important need for connection and purpose during a time of social isolation. The app creates a community that empowers teens to raise their voices for social good. Through photography challenges and virtual peer-to-peer connections, teens are encouraged to share their passions and activate others through photography.
The opportunities are endless. Some teens use their photography to bring awareness to pro-social good. For example, one high schooler used photography to shed light on foster youth. Teens may also find that having a creative outlet to document their social distancing journey is beneficial to their mental health.

Watch the video below of Lars Van De Goor. Although he is an amazing Photographer, he does include manmade paths which are NOT allowed for this Project. However, if you come across a path made by animals, like a narrow deer path, you may use it in your images.
