Photomontage

Spadford Ghost

This photomontage contains 17 different angles of Spadford Hall. The shadow in the middle is the reflection of my friend Tom standing in the middle. I wanted to keep his reflection in there to show no matter where he goes he always leaves an imprint.

Water Splat

This stop motion shot was taken while my friend, Tom, would turn the water fountain on and off in a sporadic fashion.

Dramatic Squares

These valued squares are what lights the Dakota Hallways.

Sparkling Shadows

This is a picture I took while walking back to my dorm while it was gently snowing. Almost reminds me of modern day vampires.

Blurry Tom

This is a perfect visual description of my best friend Tom. Always a blur because of all the movement he is doing.

Against All Odds

By: Sasha Hand

My inspiration for this piece of artwork was a man name Zach.

Zach and I have known each other for more than four years. He was always there for me. He was someone I could always turn to for anything. He was just an amazing guy, but I was always with someone else that I thought was more of a man than him. For four years he waited for me to see that he loved me. Finally fate struck and my boyfriend of 2 years broke it off. Zach was right there to be the friend I needed. With a month of mending I wanted to be with Zach just as much as he wanted to be with me. I have always loved him but I wasn’t sure if I could be in a relationship until I was not in one with someone else. He had at the time started to move on with his life and go for another girl. I was broken but understood that this was how it was going to be. He waited for four years for me to say that I loved him back. I thought it was for the better. So from than on I decided that I was going to be the friend and wait for him to say I love you back to me. For a few days we were talking and I brought up my feelings for him. He than told me that he didn’t understand what he was doing. Yes he wanted to see what would happen with this other girl but than there was me. He finally knew that I loved him in return. He than said the next time that we see each other in person we would make it official.

In this piece I have my face on the bottom, my feet on the top and my hand on the top left corner. My face is to show me looking at love, my feet to show me falling in love, and my hand to show me reaching for love. I have of course A picture of Zach and I kissing in front of a picture of the sun showing threw leaves to show how naturally bright our love is. I also have a picture of a river and candles in the bottom right corner. The river stands for the never ending flowing of our love and affection for each other and the candles are for the eternal flame of our love but also we would always sing “would you light my candle?” from the musical Rent. The background are trees to show how natural our love is. And I blended a picture of us to the sky peeking threw the trees to help the illusion of that. I have the daisies in there to bring the piece together, but the more I think about it maybe I put them in there to show the presence of wind. I once described Zach as the wind and how I am finally listening to it. The last thing in this piece I have in there are words. Zach sent me a picture of a man and woman holding each other and these words surrounded them, “I’ll be here…..Why….? I’ll be ‘waiting’…here… For what? I’ll be waiting…for you….so…if you come here…. You’ll find me. I promise.” Those words describe us perfectly and they mean so much to me. He means so much to me.
