We have been looking at styles of photography over the last week and have been trying to break down photography to what it essentially is.

Jeff Wall creates art through photography. He took pictures of different elements and edited them together to create 'Sudden gust of wind' which looks like a captured moment in time but has been constructed to have that effect.



He was trying to recreate  this image by Hokusai, Photography here, is used to depict the artists own interpretation of a piece of art. Our use of photography is very different as we are actually trying to capture reality as realisticly as possibly. Because we have the theme of 'The Everyday' and have chosen to emphasise on food and what we eat using un-edited 'realistic' images helped us to show the imperfect side to food we all experience everyday.
