1) Which of the artist’s many technical choices are of interest to you and why?
Jones makes good use of optical illusions to create unique images that otherwise would not exist outside of a photograph. She also has a good use of perspective to give her images more depth rather than just shooting at the subject straight on. Which allows her to create surreal painting like compositions that one might assume are computer generated.
2) What do you believe are the artist’s conceptual and/or thematic intentions?
I think the artist wants to show abstracted human figures. Jones photographs stop and made me think about ways one can abstract the human from in a photograph using my environment, lighting, and other things in my surroundings without the use of photoshop. you have to really analyze the image and take it all in.
3) How do you personally respond to these choices and intents?
Personally I love the choices made here as far as composition. The way these photos were planned out were unique there is a lot of use for reflective surfaces to give these unnatural photographs that you wouldn't normally be able to see. Adding different perspectives and not looking at the subjects in a traditional way is what allowed for these photos to be captured as well using
4) Why did I chose this artist?
I chose this artist because Julie Jones does a good job of documenting these unique abstract images and i was a fan of other work of hers as well. She lives in the midwest and most of her work is of the structures and people who inhabit that region of the united states. Her style is every interesting and uses a good contrast between colors. She's her work is good to take inspiration from when it comes to looking at things in a new perspective.
