I tried printing out the photos on different mediums for final submission. I felt like the paper base could make a huge difference in enhancing the experience of the photography project.

Printed on paper with home inkjet printer, white space cut out to test the contrast of the paper against the wall as a background.

Printed on transparency with home inkjet printer to test out the effect.


Printed on matte photo paper with home inkjet printer.

Printed on transparency and layered over a mix of coloured translucent paper to test effects of colour on the print.

After trying to print on the few mediums that I had at home, I decided to finalise with printing on transparency. I feel like the use of transparency could open the door for a wide range of effects because of the opacity of translucent printed on transparent. I also felt like the transparency could represent the act of “vulnerability” in showing my past to the world, in the sense of me being transparent about my life events.
