Sketchbook Assignment #2

Josh Sommer

1.


All of these pictures are heavily photo-shopped. They are regular photos which have been turned into miniworlds. This pictures have been rotated around a central point. Sommers uses color to define the objects in the pictures, the rest of his pictures are usually plain, and have a continual pattern. By doing this Sommers has managed to create a world which is a paradise. He has managed to create a picture which encompasses one or two objects, making it a simple world. I think he is commenting on our society and our inability to embrace the simple. I think he is also commenting on how our society is obsessed with material goods, and cannot focus on what is good. We have to start living our lives in a world where we can focus on the good, and not try to keep getting more, we must be satisfied with what we have now.
