COLLECTIONS
METHODOLOGY.
The purpose of this collection of photos is to represent a time in my own childhood when I collected a range of objects and items that caught my eye, anything from coins to buttons, with the intention of making/decorating things with them however they normally were stashed away and left there, consequently I gained a large collection of buttons and beads. The feathers in these photos are especially significant to me because they are flamingo feathers that I have kept for ten years since my grandma took me to a wildlife park. Therefore the meaning behind this photo is that although the objects appear random and unorganized, they each hold sentimental values and memories for the owner. I took the photos from very close-up to capture the detail on each individual object and the light was shone from above so that it reflected off the metallic button in the centre.
