Juxtaposition


Juxtaposition is the act of positioning close together (or side by side) for contrasting effect.

Image manipulation is now so common we perceive its presence only when it is badly executed or blatantly obvious. Through the latest digital techniques an image can be manipulated to change the way the image is perceived by its viewers and through experimentation with the blending of subject matters it can emphasize the message.

Using digital photography, image manipulation techniques and the idea of juxtaposition, I will produce a series of three composed images from the following statements:



BLOWING HOT & COLD



                               SILENCE IS DEAFENING



                                                            SEEING IN BLACK & WHITE
