Loose objects found in my purse. Normally, I carry a lot of extra bits of paper, loose coins, wrappers, and other little bits of garbage around in my purse. I had recently cleaned mine out, but this was what I found tonight when I cleaned out my purse. Two candy wrappers, a penny, and a Kroger receipt.
This was inspired by the artist we looked at in class who collected a small piece of garbage every day, scanned it into his computer, and displayed it on a blog. So here's a variation on that. This could turn into a project where the contents of my purse (or anyone else) is emptied of stray papers and garbage regularly and scanned to make an art piece.
I really like the high clarity you get when you scan something. I think it looks really appealing, and there is a lot of opportunity for play with this method of image making.
