Assignment #4 - Personal Narrative Triptych

Project Description:
You are asked to produce a series of 3 images in Photoshop that will create a personal narrative.This narrative can be imagined, auto-biographical, or biographical. The story you tell will be unique to you. How you tell it will be in combination of the 3 images and in your use of Photoshop.

Visualization:
You are also asked to create 1 composited image that places at least one (if not all) of your images into an "actual" public space. Where do you see your work being presented? If you are creating this work for a book, then please create a visualization of a 3D book with your image placed on the pages. Or if you intend on your work to be in a gallery, please use an image of a gallery and place your images on the walls. ETC. Your work could be on a series of billboards, wheat-pasted in an alley ...

Response Paper:
