1988 Photo Project: Cindy Sherman Tribute

| | Share

Here's two photos I found while digging through my attic this week. These photos are from my college photography class in 1988. This project's subject had to be people. As I recall I had read about and seen several photos by Cindy Sherman, a famous photographer who dresses herself in different costumes to create dramatic images and thought-provoking scenes. I wasn't prepared to do anything quite so serious, so I used it as an opportunity to experiment with some different costumes to show some aspects of my personality.

The first image is me in a Boy Scout uniform. I was in Scouts for over 11 years, so this is an authentic uniform.

The second image is me with 3-D glasses on reacting to a scene. I've always been a movie fan and just a few weeks prior to this I went to a sci-fi film festival and had an opportunity to see Friday the 13th, Part 3 in 3-D. It was a horrible movie, but I enjoyed the chance to see a 3-D movie in a real movie theater.
