For the ended of my semester, I had the opportunity to do an assignment that reflects on the history of pictures. I found this assignment to be very reflective towards the theory of what this class is really about. My photo-documentary was about a family unit. Since I am a generation of 4 within my family unit, I decided to take pictures from my mother’s generation, my sister’s generation, my generation and my nieces’ generation. Looking at these pictures make me realize that each generation is different and that each individual is different. I also realized that within each generation, they try to make their difficulties better for the next generation.
This was a very interesting project because it allowed me to really focus on the history and story of the picture instead of the caption of the moment. It helped me to understand the difficulties that life has to hand to you within certain generations. Its captures the picture in a whole different way that allowed me to appreciate what my history is.
