The Process:

Following the advice from the last couple of days, I went into the forest and took pictures of varying levels of exposure. I layered the high exposure photos to the right in order to emulate the increasing brightness toward the end of the song. I initially arranged the photos in a grid similar to Andy Warhol's pieces, but I felt that it made the piece too clean and segmented. So instead, I blended the ends of the photos together to create this continuous collage. I liked how certain horizon lines matched up, and used this create a flow from left to right.

I introduced some duplicated elements at varying opacities, similar to the layered voices in the song. I added more duplicated elements to the right of the piece to emulate the gradual addition of voices. I chose to keep the last portion of the piece relatively empty, because I feel like the song ended a bit abruptly. Finally, I still wanted to introduce some features from pop art. So, I used blocked colors to remove some texture. In the style of Andy Warhol, I drew solid lines to outline some of the important features, namely to horizon lines. I didn't intend this to happen, but the jagged blocks of color made the photos seem a little bit like Banksy's graffiti. I don't have the sort of political statement that Banksy does, but I do like the graphic feel of it.
