Old is New Again - Danny Lizano

I tried to represent a moment in the past that had no reference to a certain specific time frame. I tried to allow some of the landscape to show through to give a mood/theme for the concept. The concept relates to a festive-like event in a city and even though the setting is suppose to represent being fast paced, the texture helps define that while still concealing some of the content.

Since I chose to do a simple portrait for this project I felt that it was necessary for me to frame is at some point in time. I did this by adding the pipe and having my model put on his glasses.

Old is New - Elaine Phong

For this project, I thought it would be an interesting idea if I recreated a scene taken place during the Vietnam War. My family has a lot of history with this war and I still have a lot of questions to ask but it's always a touchy subject for my parents and grandparents. I'm just really thankful for all the sacrifices they made in order to come to America in order to provide the next generation with a happier life.

I had a lot of fun messing around with textures, smudging and blurring areas, and layering. My goal is to get the viewer to think it is an original old photograph taken during the war in the 1960s-70s

Old is New - Sheridan Starnes

For this assignment, the idea of time played a major role in my image. I wanted to depict something antique, since that would be inline with the wet plate process. Also, the idea of absence was something I thought about. Instead of placing a figure in my image, I wanted to leave the presence of the image open ended. I wanted to prompt viewers with thoughts of, "there's a chair, why is no one there?"
