11.2 Final Project Initial Idea: "Nature Walk" Series

My final project dice, as depicted above, rolled "digital photography," "environment," and "found materials," and this immediately gave me the idea to do a photo series of "nature walks." These walks would largely consist of me taking my digital camera and going out into different areas (i.e. parks, forests, specific boroughs, notable landmarks/places in NYC, etc.) to find preexisting objects, things, or materials that can be arranged into artful compositions which speak to the nature of the places I visit. To me, this was the most fun and efficient way to stay true to the the dice because I will be letting the dice dictate my project in the most technical and literal way imaginable: I will be in various environments, taking digital photos of things and materials that I find and place together. 

Possible nature walks might include:
-Central Park (Manhattan)
-Inwood Hill Park (Manhattan)
-Prospect Park (Brooklyn)
-Forest Park (Queens)
-River Park (Bronx)
-Hunter Island at Pelham Bay Park (Bronx)
-Greenbelt Park (Staten Island)
