This piece was inspired by Annegret Soltau’s work. I particularly focused on her compositions where she ripped out a hole in the middle of the photograph and stitched them to another image underneath and I decided to combine two photographs featuring the same person. I think that this piece is really successful because composition is structured well. I think that this piece looks like the person is jumping into another universe which I really like.

As the two figures in this photograph had just their heads and shoulders out of the water I decided to combine it with another photo containing a figure with just his head and shoulders out of the water. The similarities between the two photographs help to balance the composition and make it work as there is a clear link between the two photos. I think this piece is really successful because it looks like the other image is supposed to be there other than the slight change in the shade of blue. 

I decided to try stitching a ripped section of a photograph with only a small section of it being on the photograph. I chose these two images because the figures are both looking in the same direction. I think that this piece is kind of successful however I think the technique of ripping a hole in the photograph seems more successful than this style, perhaps because the composition is more balanced where as this piece isn’t really balanced because of the overlap on the bottom right.

I chose these two images because they are both underwater so I thought they would fit well together. I decided to rip the photograph by trying to go around the figure but still keeping it quite central. I think that this composition works well because it is well balanced structurally as it looks like it has near enough been slice equally from top right to bottom left. The colours from both photographs were very similar and blended well together.

I decided to go back to stitching with a hole in the middle of a photograph as I felt that these ones were more successful. I picked these two photographs because I felt that the shades of blue in the water were very similar and also the arms look like they are reaching out in the direction of the two figures in the water. I think this composition is not as successful as the others, perhaps because of the difference in size of the figures or maybe because you can’t see the whole of the figure underneath's body. Whilst it may not be as successful as the other pieces I still really like this work because it looks like we are looking in on another universe where the figure is in the same pool but doing a different activity.
