Ste our class teacher, has instructed our group to look on the world wide web at photograms and artists..... I initially googled photograms 1970's seen as thou I'm an old foogie born in this era I thought I would have a look to see who was producing images around this time.... However I stumbled across some interesting images from David Fried!


Way of words

The circular balls are bright and stand out calming the madness around them, they look like they are 3d coming out towards you! Calm & madness and one image

 
This photogram of the grasshopper is bright and I'm not sure if it was standing up or lying down when it was taken? The centre of the photogram almost illuminates the rest of the page its so bright!  

The image below is tranquil and reflective moving the eye is drawn all over the photogram from the centre to the top and the bottom following the waves. The contrast of the colour from dark to light with the horizon in the centre behind the ball shape makes you look behind the ball to see what's there. I'm not sure how the photographer has got the reflection lifting up from the circular shape and running through it... Its making me think more about the image and how I look at it!
