MAS110 Photo Essay - Jacqueline Green and Claudia Werner

MAS110 Photo Essay: Lines and Signs (Transport)

Jacqueline Green (42870534) and Claudia Werner (42872944) LAB 15


Theme: Lines and Signs
Subtheme: Transport

Media convergence and the increasing social use of digital photography has caused a shift in the notion of everyday aesthetics. Amateur photography is extremely popular and involves the capturing and sharing of the moment that is more instant and less about those moments that are rare and special. With this idea in mind, our photo assessment is about capturing the beauty of lines and signs that in everyday life may be overlooked. With a sub-theme of transportation, the lines and signs featured near or on roads have an exquisiteness that could have be ignored. Objects and shapes as simple as lines and signs can be considered mundane and therefore not much attention is granted. This photo essay that we have created demonstrates within the sub-theme of transportation , the magnificence of straight lines and the symmetry it can create, as well as the colours and irregular shapes of the regulation signs.
