We had a talk called The Gaze today which covered both the male and female gaze. It was basically about the way that men and women look at each other, in a negative and positive way.
We also covered aspects such as narcissism and voyeurism, saying can a photo be both voyeuristic and narcissistic? How do you show narcissism? Who is watching who in a photo? All things i can research into further for the presentation I need to create in 5 weeks.
I found this talk really inspirational and it gave me a lot of ideas for projects, not just for the presentation but for personal use as well.
I liked most of the artists and pieces shown to us. i liked Merry Aleprn's dirty windows andshopping, camera club, Corrine Day's Tara and Shizuka Yokomizu doing her 10 minute window piece the most and I want to research into these more.
