Senior Seminar poster

As you may already know, besides this photography project, South Apopka is also the topic of my senior seminar for my environmental studies major. The final body of work is an academic poster, a jpg version of which is below. I tried to make it both aesthetically artistic and academically informative, turning what could have been be a bland and boring representation of a semester's worth of work into a fusion of art and academia. The barbed wire is clearly visible across the title, and the fence is more visible on the printed version. With the background I was hoping to hit the emotional part of the brain before the viewer even started reading, and each picture contains a little paragraph that tells you a little bit of the story. The whole thing is brought together in the middle, where you can clearly see where each picture was taken. Some of the photos here I will be using in my final critique for Photo II, and others function more as visual documents, simply showing people what the place looks like.
