Robert Flemming - Sheltered |
This image shows connotations of Autumn. It looks like he was creating a sense of warmth to the image with all the objects wrapped together with a deep background. He was trying to create the image so that it felt like you were there walking through a forest and finding these objects there, a sense of reality.

" My images are in many ways more like paintings than photographs"
Fleming experimented with everything and then developed this by using surreal backgrounds. He says how his images are like paintings, yet a painter has to see something to produce an image. Scanography is all in the mind which you create yourself. It shows a different perspective to things when creating an image.

The image above makes me think of someone saying hands off. Not wanting anyone to look inside the book. The numbers down the sides may be the number of days like a diary, hence the gloves on top to show a sense of privacy.
At first Seeley just piled objects onto the scanner where he said they started to "become a part of an inverted still life composition". He played around with layers, colours and lighting. The objects are things he has collected himself. His images are personal and he can relate to them in a way no one else can. They show a mystery to the audience and so you can create many ideas behind them.
my final scan image |
I feel it shows more of a meaning compared to the other two. The objects I chose represent me right now and so it signify's a meaning. As a whole I feel my scan doesn't give off an immediate reaction to what I am trying to say. The patterned image doesn't show exactly what the object really is, yet it gives the scan a mystery and representing an aspect of me. A lot of the other images such as the playing card and the yellow ticket show me as a student but they are represented also in a more of an anonymous way.
The image above shows a variety of scans that were put up in the gallery. We all had a good look around and saw a great variety of scanography showing different combinations of objects and effects used.
