Final
Masked identity
I first began taking the role of the fleneur exploring, observing and being observed by the city from different angles before shifting to the situationist drifting strategy. I applied it to my context leading myself through the city recognizing the bold brands that sticks out lodging themselves as memories of the paths that i navigated through the city.
In the photos that i have taken i wanted to display the sense of dominance and somewhat masked identity of owners behind brands. I photographed manikins through the store windows of high labeled brands, capturing reflections and their staunch posture. I photographed them like this to relate them to the owners of top labeled brands being masked, unnoticeable when the brands are persuading people into purchasing their goods. The lighting on the faces again shows the dominance and masked identity that they hold.

3-4th iteration of photos
I went out photographing at night soon after 6 o'clock photographing with some sunlight left before getting pitch black and just the lights of surrounding buildings. Found it hard to try and get a strong layer of branded reflections on the glass where the manikins are positioned.

Context
Haiku:
Brainwashed, persuaded,
controlled, the public blinded
by advertisements

Project 2: critical selfie
I tried to take some photos showing a mysterious figure to represent the owners behind dominate high end fashion labels and brands. i wanted to get some more reflections on the stores on the other side of the road bluring out the face more but couldn't quite get it.
Context isn't quite there so will revisit the readings about situationists and find a better way to reproach my idea with the lens.
