Photography


The brief for this assignment was to listen to a song or part of a song and then visually communicate it. This was to teach us to not just take random pictures but to produce photography with a meaning. The song I chose is Devil In A New Dress from Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy album (2010); and the lyric i chose to use is:
                         "and that magic hour
                           i seen good christians make rash decisions
                           oh she do it
                           what happened to religion?
                           oh she lose it"

The concept for my series of photographs was 'the naughty schoolgirl and the catholic priest' as i wanted to play with the controversy of highly religious people going against the Lord's commandments and having pre-marital sex, which the world seems to have forgotten is a sin.

My models are Zama Dlamini and Kelvin Young. A special thanks to Thobani Gambushe, Lungelo Ngcobo and Dennis Bronner for all the help.
