Eleanor's work embodies the idea of daydreaming the banality and routine of daily life into something more mystical, playful and beautiful; it is a reflection of a world where surrealism meets realism.

ReplyDeleteThis is really inspiring and after reading your post, it makes me want to immerse myself in photography seriously. I am certain students would have the same feeling after reading this too. Since many young students like photo shooting nowadays, why not we ask them to go home and shoot some photos on the theme of "life". After that, ask them to bring all the photos they have shot to school. Teacher can ask them to create a photo album on the theme of "life" and for each photo, they have to write down a caption of at least one sentence. After finishing everything, students will be given a chance to present their album in front of the class and talk about their ideas. If there are too many students in a class, then a small group of 3 to 4 is advisable.

Our time is limited, so lats not waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
