The Human Condition - Fine Art Portrait

The fine art portrait was for me the most interesting part of the brief, i had taken pictures of a band and done both the band all together and the members on there own, i was quite happy with the images, i converted them to black and white which i felt made them more dramatic and although i was happy with the images in my assessment Andy said they were ok however i ha no concept it was just pictures of a band and that the important ting with fine art is the concept and so i went and re did some other images for this part of the brief however am still happy with the first outcome.

This is my contact sheet for the first attempt on the fine art portrait with the originals before i converted them to black and white

I then started to think ov a concept i could do for fine art, i have always been interested in crime and crime scenes i starrtd to look into a few things but didnt wasnt to do anything to elaborite with the fear of it looking faked and a bit cheesy, i started looking into domestic abuse and although quite disturbing i thaught id have a go at trying to do some images for this i shot it against a blue background for a cold and clinical effect like they had been used for evidence or something. I wanted to capture both the emotional and physica effects and detail of domestic violence, i converted some of the images into black and white as i elt this made it more cold and depressing. I did some portraits and some supporting images also of hands, arm and back brusing these are all on my contact sheet.
