My final project is a series of seven horizontal images. It
is a study of how museums display preserved environments and how its visitors
perceive and observe those environments. Each image was taken to include hints
of the subject being enclosed behind panes of glass, building on the idea of
how museum visitors are only given a specific perspective on how to view the
exhibit. This specific view accompanied by constant lighting and related
musical elements allow for the viewer to become immersed in this virtual
reality. We allow our senses to believe in the staged museum environments.
The prints are sized smaller at 4” x 6” to mimic a postcard
size and to get the viewer to come in closer to inspect and become involved
with the images.
