Diane Arbus Study

 

 Describe
In this photo Tia is giving Luis a piggy back ride. They are relatively close to the camera. In the background is a bush and a building. This work is figurative.

Analyze
In this piece are many different shapes and textures mostly in their clothing and in the bush. The contrast is not very dramatic, but it is present. This is image is in focus and this was done on purpose so the subjects sare the main focal point.

Interpret
 This photo is meant to embrace the style of Diane Arbus. Therefore, it is meant to be awkward. This photo is awkward because Luis is so big compared to Tia and she is the one carrying him. This is a light image. Tia is smiling which makes this picture have a happier mood. This was taken outdoors.

Judge
I think this work is successful. It's awkwardness is similar to that of Diane Arbus's work which was the main point of the project. It could be improved as far as composition. Like contrast and clarity, but I think the meaning was accurately conveyed.
