CheyAnn’s Foil

For the photography project my object is aluminum foil. I was very drawn to the unique origin of my item. Aluminum foil derived from aluminum due to aluminum’s numerous characteristics—the most interesting being—malleability. With malleability, aluminum has the ability to be flattened or hammered into any shape without becoming cracked or torn. To me, it symbolized that aluminum foil has the ability to shape shift according to the needs of the environment. In my project there will be a series of monochromatic photos that displays the sense of blending in with one’s surroundings or hiding from the torment of society.
