Shifted Meanings

  • Alena Bobrovskaya

My final degree project “Shifted Meanings” explores misinformation, "false" beliefs and recollections due to the visual reconstruction of information around us. I present a set of hand-printed and collaged photographs that reflect upon the intentional selection of memories. Manipulated photography, abandoning any commitment to a literal recording of the world as perceived by the eye, suggests a complex intention behind what we see and what we are asked to see. It creates false memories of events that never occurred. These manipulations influence how we interpret and understand the visual information surrounding us. Thank you to CSM Graphics and Book Works !
