Project 4: Junkanoo (Light Abstractions)

For this project I wanted to do something more abstract, so I listened to this type of music (Junkanoo), and took note of what basically made it up. Bright colors were obviously important, as well as a chaotic and unpredictable rhythm. It also seemed to be highly experimental, with no real rules or guidelines. It's full of spontaneity. I thought that light could show color, rhythm, and spontaneous changes well, so I decided to make a series of photographs by just abstracting light in an experimental way. Except for the bright colors, none of these photos have been changed from how they were originally taken.
