a bit about my idea...

Like I have mentioned previously I am looking at the way in which cameras have become a big part of out lives, they are used every single day of our lives in one way or another, with things varying from CCTV to studio work, cameras have become a necessity to us, they are like an extension to our own bodies.

I want to focus on how we - as humans, have taken a strong liking to cameras and how they are now such a big part of us, we use cameras for many different reasons, personal photographs of things such as families, parties, and special occasions. For work purposes like studio work, events and landscape photographs are amongst a few. Camera are like our second nature and we rely on them to a certain extent, we use them to capture our memories, to keep them fresh in out minds.

Therefore for this project I am going to look at how cameras have become part of us, using both photographs of people and of cameras, by cut and pasting, blending and merging I intend to produce numerous experiments exploring this theme.
