Finalising my perspective + Haiku

Me blah-ing away:
(Ill have more direct photos on Friday)
So my final idea is about hidden design. What I mean by 'Hidden' design, is where people just walk past these great design's in these places such as an alley way's where the whole place looks dead because there is no one that walks through and sticks to the main road. So in my photo's I want to express this hidden world through my images.

I haven't taken my main hidden design photos yet because I was to busy getting lost an photography interesting/ stand out objects. But here is a bunch of images that slightly represent my idea.


My photography will be all the same perspective, so for example all in focus in front of the camera. But I'm most likely to use a side on view of the actually alley way.

From the reading "Material Culture and Narrative" they talk about narrating objects.
"At an individual level, narratives consist of the accounts or stories people tell themselves and others".

"Individuals tell their lives through stories.... This process of narrtivization tells us a great deal about the meanings of people apply to their lives."  

"In settings and spaces where the meaning of objects is open to interpretation or debate".

"Narratives also circulate within cultures, telling members of a group about their own culture."

Critical perspective:
 My critical perspective of this idea of 'hidden art' is objects or spaces that get past by everyday and get unnoticed such as alley ways full of art, culture and identity. I want to tell a narrative throughout my photography of how these spaces get past daily by when these spaces have a lot of meaning in them and has a cultural reference engraved within these spaces.  

Haiku's:
The darkness is there,
The beauty is also there,
 Just walk on in there.

Hidden art works well,
Because it's in the shadows,
Which is for the best.
