As I said in my post in Random Assignment 1, I want to try to take photos of urban environments that feel especially desolate and futuristic, yet nostalgic of the era of the early 2000s, and the mentality of an “urban hell”. It’s hard to describe the feeling I want my photos to evoke, but I would like them to be something lonely and nostalgic, like a walk through an old vacant mall, or looking at an overly-sci-fi’d commercial from the early 2000s.
Over the course of working on this project, finding spaces to photograph that evoke the right kinds of feelings has been challenging, and I would like to try to find new cities and areas that would be good subjects to photograph. I also want to try and improve on finding angles that display the best possible configuration of the urban environment, background, and any objects (trees, poles) that happen to be in the frame.
