Objects
Here I have two variations of a photograph of my wallet. This is one of the most important things I own in my life. It carries some essentials that I need, the money to my name, and identification which is why I named the pieces "SafeKeeper". I created these images in "PhotoPea" by taking the image and using a filter to give it a different look.
Here I have images of my headphones, which is the reason I titled it "Getaway". These headphones put me in an entirely different world and block out the rest of humanity with the power of music and words and its just an incredible "Getaway". And just like the previous images, I used PhotoPea to create these images by using a filter to give the second part a different look. In this case I had "crystalized" the image.
This is a set of images that show my pink velvet durag. This piece has the most personal meaning to me out of any of these objects because it represent my personal culture. Being half black wearing and having this durag represents who I am greatly. And just like the previous images I also input the image of it into PhotoPea to create the look of these images.
This is an image of a very very ripe apple. I live up in Barton Hills where there are apple trees around my whole house and neighborhood. So the apple has a lot of personal meaning to me. Just like these other images I used photopea to create the images, but instead I used the "Mezzotint" filter to create the black specs seen on the second photograph.
Here is my last set of images where you se an image of a pear. This pear was the symbolism of one of the movement the Cleaveland Browns used during one of their fight songs. I love the NFL and play football myself so having an image relation to that aspect of my life also has lots of personal connection to me. And just like all these other images I used photopea to create these effects by using the "Mosaic" filter instead.
