Friday's Identities Work - Who Am I?

We've been having a lecture on Friday for the past two weeks taken by an artist trying to get us think about our identity's and what this means. Like we're not doing this already?

Heres the task we were set...
• Create your own portrait using the object collection you have selected. (you do not need to put yourself in this image)
• Explore composition and location.
• Find a real location or construct a location using ideas from last weeks mapping tasks or your mood board work.
• Experiment with how you photograph your objects in this environment considering scale, light and framing.
• Consider the narratives these objects seem to write, look at the affect of combining objects. You may exclude one object that you feel doesn't fit the portrait you want to create.
• Experiment with more formal and apparently chaotic compositions.
• Explore how much the narratives can change through different compositions of the object, as they are placed both individually and together.

Ive taken three photos - all different compositions and Ive readjusted them on photoshop everso slightly. Not sure which one I like the best... most likley I'll tell you soon.
Take a look - let me know what you think.
