Meganv_finger ideas


The first picture I chose is a little on the grotesque side.  It is abstract because it is so close up, yet because of the distinct lines and texture you can clearly tell it is a cut on one of the fingers.  It keeps you wondering and cringing all at the same time. With my project i plan to do some abstract work with just the texture of the finger.


The next picture I chose was a photograph of fingers as people.  The fingers truly take human form in this photograph, with the drawn on eyes, and the drawn on arms, but also with their posture.  The middle man is bent over in pure laughter, and it really makes them all look like they are having a good time.  This work is elegant in black and white with the contrast of the very dark drawn on features and the light skin of the finger. The look like true people, but at the same time, it is funny because you can tell they are fingers. I will be playing with this for my project.


The last picture that I love is the finger print formed with typography.  I will definitely be doing something similar with my finger project, because I enjoy making forms with typography.  Finger prints are so unique to each persons fingers that i would like to play with the ways to form them and how we recognize it.  I enjoy this piece because it takes meaningful poems about fingerprints and forms one.
