Erasure

This post contains my image erasure project. I chose images off the internet of litter for this project. In my post I liked the idea of putting the original photo beside my edited version because it makes a more powerful statement. The idea of erasing litter from my photos is something that I believe has a strong statement because I am taking something that is wrong and should have never polluted the earth and these images and making it like it was never there. In the two of my images that had people in them I also chose to remove them. To me this was almost like removing the root cause of the problem. If the people weren’t in these areas then the litter wouldn’t be there either.
