Final Project Proposal

Sean Murphy, Forty-Something Days With a Bunch of Kids. 2014

Dorothea Lange, July 1939. Gordonton, N.C. 1939

Robert Yager, L.A. Gang Gun Baby. 1991

I'd like my final portfolio to center on rural life in Florida, and the gun culture that comes along with it in some areas (particularly in the area I grew up). I like the humanization that rural subject matter tends to bring out, and I think Dorothea Lange's work is an excellent example of the sort of organic poses, settings, and timings that I'd like to achieve. However, I'd like to avoid glorifying any sort of weaponization, and instead present it in a more documentary style.
