My idea for these final images was to revisit my high school. The lighting was really important because it allowed me to take clear reflections through windows around the school. I also tried to be aware of the framing while taking the photographs so that the focus was on me and the school. For the photographs with my reflection, I also tried to make an in camera collage.
I'm proud to say that I went to this school despite its criticisms and its at time unappealing appearance. This project was important in revealing how my high school experiences regarding issues of race and social/economical class have formed my ideas of how I see those issues on a larger scale today.
