"Blood Line"---Photos by Anne Laure Autin
1. Which of the artists many technical choices are of interest to you and why?
The choice that Anne made to stage her photos in such a way where they will express the message/meaning that she is trying to portray is one of my favorite things about these images. Anne has positioned her daughter in these photos to create an illustration of illnesses/death that everyone can understand or even relate to. The way Anne has staged her photos fills me with so many emotions. I have lost many loved ones due to smoking, self harm, and stillbirth. These photos show a simple illustration yet hold such deep meanings.
2. What do you believe are the artists conceptual and/or thematic intentions?
I believe that Anne's intentions for photographing these images are so that her audience can not only relate to what she was feeling but also to reminisce on the loved ones they've lost due to these conditions.
3. How do you personally respond to these choices and intents?
I can personally relate to these photographs because I have had loved ones go through the same things that the images are portraying. I have lost a grandfather from his smoking habits, I have lost a friend from self harm, and I have lost a cousin from stillbirth. Anne's technical choices and intentions for these photographs have greatly portrayed the message that she is trying to show her audience.
