patterns, evaluation

we were tasked with capturing patterns in the environment. i went out in search of any patterns that i could see around me. i was able to find a great amount of patterns around me in the form of brickwork, structural design, pavement and flowers. I was able to use some reference from my image bank in order to have a good basis in order to start searching within the environment for examples of pattern. I attempted to incorporate some interesting examples of the formal elements in order to make my images more visually dynamic. I found this task to be successful as i was able to achieve a good amount of variation within the types of photos used.

I chose this image because it is an accurate representation of the kind of pattern that we would see on a daily basis. This also shows an example of a pattern that repeats itself in an organised way. The pattern is easy to notice and is shown in a simple way.

This is an exampleof an overwhelming and unorganised pattern. The frame of this image is filled with copies of the same line and the wires loop around to create the image of a never ending repetition of pattern.

Progression:

if i were to change anything about the pictures, i would search for more obscure examples that would produce a more interesting final image. I would also like to look at different examples of pattern in varying examples of size and scale. I would do this by photographing buildings and other large objects and compare them to smaller object such as drains. This subject has allowed me to look at different ways to make my images appear to have more depth and give the image something that will interest the audience.
