I randomly came up with another Polariod film project! My idea is to create a set of Polaroids that will capture memories from childhood (and my teenage years) from Winnipeg.
What I plan on doing is taking pictures of areas in the city where I have a memory/story to tell (which will then be written onto the Polaroid as a caption). For longer stories, I’ll figure out a way to place all of the text on the film sheet.
The subjects are going to be VERY simple… it will look meaningless, but the caption will explain the meaning of the photo.
Here’s a list of Polaroids I want to capture:
- The sidewalk block where I biked over the neighbor’s grandmother
- My old house I grew up in
- My old backyard
- Under the Maryland bridge
- On the Maryland bridge
- The walk home from highschool (Kingsway)
- Assiniboine Park’s Money trails (Devil’s Dip)
- Assiniboine Park: main field (Teddy Bear’s picnic & Kite Festival location)
- JMK’s foursquare
- Portage Avenue
- Kelvin High School: Bench/Field
- Kelvin High School: The White Shack
- Kelvin High School: Inside - > lockers
- etc, etc, etc
(I need to modify the list to add in more specific stories)
Set #1 will consist of 20 Polaroids.
