Narrative potential of Digital photography

'Sum of our experiences'

I would like to try and take pictures of where mum is at in reality and superimpose old black and white

Shots

1. The hospital activity connected to mum 2. Mum absent from her bed she made in the sitting room 3. Mum in hospital bed and other ideas4. Kitchen 5. Bathroom
The main idea is manipulating the old photos of her life and her experiences onto things she sees, touchs, senses today e.g. passing through(corridor of the hospital), present time situations, the blankets of her bed with shots of her jumping when she was young.
criteria
- combination of digital manipulation, scene staging and image appropriation. Shift from reality to fiction, to create our own stories, our own worlds and our own particular versions of reality.
- consider the use of narrative in contemporary and historical photography
