Project 1- "The Fabric of Society"- Idea Exploration





For my "Journey" project I photographed things that I found interesting on my trip around Bulgaria. When we were given the "Fabric of Society" project, I initially considered using the images pictured above, perhaps contrasting the layout and formation of a city in two differing landscapes/parts of the world. Or even perhaps looking at how this might have been affected by a country's historical or political past as Bulgaria was once part of the Soviet Union whereas the UK was Built on a predominantly capitalist society.










I also went around my local area picking spots of significance to my childhood and also exploring Highgate cemetery, an area which I have never been to despite living in the area my whole life. I thought the cemetery could be useful in providing an understanding to the type of people which built the society we live in today. Although they are no longer around, the people that are remembered in the grave yard have all contributed in someway to the development of the world or "society" we live in.
