Recreation

As a photographer, I really enjoyed doing this task, which is picking one of the paintings or photos provided that has been provided and use the environment that I am in and use some objects that I have to help me create the same scene that I chose.

My final image is a screenshot of the scene that I chose called Sarah Lucas 'Self-Portrait with Skull1997.

We did this task within the session.

I love Skulls and it have been popular printing skulls on t-shirts, logo's, sculptures and etc., its not just a type of style, also meaningful, some people think skulls represent conquering their fear of death but in my opinion it is a reminder to live every day as if it’s your last..

I did this creation with my 9 years old niece Ashley and mom helped us capturing some photos using my phone, while she was taking photos we we're laughing out loud because I don't know how to do the position and couldn't hide my smile. The skull that I presented in these photo's is real, this might be scary for some people, but as a Muslim we celebrate Eid al-Adha 'Feast of the Sacrifice', animals are sacrificed ritually ( a goat, sheep, cow or camel) , One third of their meat is consumed by the family offering the sacrifice, while the rest is distributed to the poor and needy.

I took the skull of the sheep, cleaned it will so later on i can keep it and learn how to do a realistic sculpture.

Here are the captures :

Note : Ashley used her little Plastic Skull and I used the real one.
