Project 1 - Concept

For our project we have to find a space that we can explore photographicly, in order to communicate the concept: the narratives, the politics or the cultural construction of a place. I have chose an old, run down army base on the top of the hill in Shelly Bay, Miramar. I want to take photos of the abanndoned cubby holes and dark rooms that the soldiers used to hide inside during the war. From the beginning i wanted to take photos of a run down abandoned area because i thought it was interesting how something unattractive and imperfect could appear as something beautiful in a photograph.
