In-depth analysis of Markus Kison.

I researched another photographer called Markus Kison he is a digital based photographer based in Berlin. Markus has exhibited in various museums, received many awards and gives opinionated talks. 

Markus produced a project called 'Untitled but dissected' this consisted of a series of Polaroid photographs each with a main feature cut around so that it pops out of the image by cutting out certain areas of the photographs he turns a digital layers into a physical layers. 

By using the pop-up photos it makes us as the audience feel as though he could possibly be trying to drag us into the photograph. 

From looking at his work I gained a better understanding of picking main features/subjects in a photograph. Sometimes the little things are the things that grab the audiences attention. I think that the chosen theme within each image is different to the next most of them are similar in the way that they consist of people socialising and landscapes.

The use of colour is natural and the less vibrant colours give a sense of realism.

Markus has taken images of something you would see everyday and enhanced it into something unique.

The pieces are presented in a glass box for protection but this allows you to view it from all angles and see what areas are popped up.

By looking at the photographs the people do not seem to be posed. I think that each photo has been taken spontaneously.

Features like people in the foreground or buildings in the background are normal things that grab your attention. However if I was to go on to produce my own work inspired by Markus I would probably chose to use less obvious things, such as lamp posts, cars or maybe trees.
