I chose to recreate and re-color this image because I hadn’t seen anyone else do it and I’m really interested in seeing black and white photos come alive in a representation as how someone would see it in real time. This picture is also important because I’ve gone to a lot of Jefferson basketball games and it’s  cool to see how the jerseys have changed and how the gym looks the same. It looks like he is sitting on the end of the bench and I can feel the emotion from his facial expression.

I chose this picture because I am a musician I play the Hammond B3 Oregon and any type of drums. This picture means so much to me because I had to save a lot of money! Just to get my own drum set and I play the drums for my grandmothers church Dr. Rev Mary H overstreet Smith in so when I got for drum set I just felt good because I got an accomplishment that I’ve been wanting to get for so long finally off my checklist

I chose this picture because I’m really into photography this is actually this boy named Trenton I know and he let me take his pictures. I like the scenery of this spot I took it from. I took this in Vancouver I like the outdoors and think I’m getting better and better every time I shoot with someone!

This is a reenactment of an old photo my mom took of her dog when she was in college. I chose this photo to recreate because the way her dog was looking past the camera seemed like something i could do, so with my dog i made him lay on a blanket and i waited till he looked past the blanket so i could get the perfect shot.

I picked these photos because they meant the most to me, my grandma has lived off of Alberta for over 30 years. With Alberta being a very gentrified location I decided to pick the first photo which was taken 32 years ago. My grandmother used to work on houses and this was one of the houses she used to work on and actually ended up buying this home. The new photo is now her house currently I love it because I grew up in this house, I even lived in this house at a point in time and just to see how much it’s changed from back then and to be on such a street and still have your house is very precious to me. I feel like it’s also very important because when my grandma did first moved into Portland her and my mother and uncles and aunts were on of the very few white families on Alberta. Back then it was very different so for her to be more on the poor side and still build up her house and take care of her family and struggle in a place like this is another reason I think I chose this photo and why it’s even more cool. also my mom and my dad met in this house so if it wasn’t for this house I wouldn’t be here.

The reason why I selected this photo for my final is because I personally feel like it best represents the year 2020. I was out with my sisters and we saw a large group of young protestors gathering in the streets of MLK. When we joined we instantly felt empowered and inspired. We were young people taking up space, letting it be known that Black Lives Matter and being unapologetic about it. I think 2020, well you could say that we as a people didn’t come together in the literal since, but at the same time we did, quarantine let us see the things that we usually ignored, I think there was a lot of division, but this picture represents Black youth unity which is something that got me through such a tough year.

When I first saw the original photo the thing that stood out to me most was how the subject was alone and curled up into a ball. To me, that kind of represented the way I and I think a lot of people have been feeling being isolated at home this entire school year. I chose to change the phone to a computer to show how it can be really exhausting and lonely to sit behind a computer screen everyday. I also chose to change the ashtray to a mask because I felt it worked better with the story I was telling.

I chose this photo because I love dancing so I chose a photo that I already have and edited it to look better. I dance Ballet Forklorico, it is really fun and it is something I really like doing, it makes me happy.

I chose this picture because Muhammad Ali is my dad's favorite athlete and he has always told me stories about him and how he looked up to him when he was little. Muhammad Ali is Muslim and so is my dad and he grew up that way. I chose to do this picture in my own sportswear. As we all know Muhammad Ali was a boxer and I play volleyball so I decided to do it in my volleyball gear.

In the original image the focal point was the newspaper. I tried to carry that over that from the original image. my mom is who modeled for the image and we decided they should wear a hat. I tried to carry some joy into this image, celebrating the small things is all we can do at times like these.

I chose to do my recreation for the final padlet because I think it turned out good and the meaning in it for me. I saw the original and thought it would be nice to recreate it with a mask to represent this school year.

I chose this picture because I just loved how it looked in black and white, the volcano really looks like it's from an old movie and I also really like how only half of my uncle's body is the frame, I thought that was pretty cool but this is a picture of a person, place and a thing. I took this picture while I was in Mexico, we were on our way to Colima which is where my parents are from.

I like this photo simply because of how simple it is and how the sky looks in the photo.The reason why I took a picture here was because I was building something in my backyard looked up and saw that it was a nice day out. I also like how it kinda looks spooky at the same time

# data[].attributes.body
The reason why I picked this photo was because I like riding in the street on my skateboard at night. The reason why I like this photo is because of how nice it came, out as I was riding down the hill I tried to take a pic of it a couple times never could the way the sky looks and lights also reflect off my camera in the pic is what I also find to be pretty interesting  to me.

The original photo immediately reminded me of my mother and grandmother. My mom and grandmother have the biggest smiles, my mom gets her smile from her. This photo shows natural beauty and pure happiness from a black women. That’s what I think my mother is.

This picture was not what I initially planned to reenact, but when I was scrolling through the slides again, it immediately caught my eye. Although I don’t know the context behind it, it’s very powerful to me. The simplicity of the background really helps highlight the emotions of the person. When I took my picture, I noticed the sky looked really cool. In color, it doesn’t seem like much but when I put it in black and white and tweak it a little, it looked turbulent, perfectly reflecting the emotion I was trying to convey. And that’s my younger brother who I took a picture of.

I chose to reenact this photo in my own way. Even though we're from two different times, and have two different instruments, we're doing the same thing in the end and that's kind of what I wanted to convey.

This is a reenactment of an old photo taken in front of my house of me, my sister, and my great grandmas ‘70 Volkswagen Fastback (which is now mine) which was just recently restored and repainted in its original color. The car has been in my family since it was bought new by my great grandmother in 1971 and the car's spent its whole life in Oregon. This reenactment photo was taken in the exact same spot almost 12 years apart from the original. We tried our best to wear the same outfit. My sister's even wearing a band-aid in the exact spot on the left knee as the original pic.

I chose to recreate a photo of a man and a woman sleeping on a public bench. I chose this photo to reenact because I had the best idea of how and where I'd take it and I also liked the calm and tranquil setting that it gave off to me. I didn't have a second person to use for the photo so I duplicated myself for it. I tried to make my clothes different so the duplication was less obvious, but I still used the same duffel bag for both characters. I also ended up with a much more open and visually interesting background than in the original photo, simply because of where the bench was located.

Well i was looking at all of the picture for the choices we had to reenact. My little brother walked into my room and saw me scroll past the boy flexing and he said “i’m stronger than him”. So i asked him if he wanted to do take that picture and he said yeah.

Earlier this year, my family and I were looking through some old photo albums that my grandma had owned before she passed away. I came across the original, and had to take a picture of it. We aren’t sure who it’s of, but it’s likely from the 50s or 60s. I liked that there was a bit of mystery to it, so I decided to add my own story to it. I also didn't have a bike, so I replaced it with a yard decoration.

This picture was took of me once that racist statute got pulled off in front off Jefferson high school. And this was a very big moment for me because as one I the faces off Jeff I play a big role so I had to stand up and take this picture!

# data[].attributes.body
I am choosing this picture because this is what I used for the reenactment and this photo really stuck out to me was the clouds. They were are all cluttered and structured very nicely showing what beauty nature has to give. I also felt my pose was very amazing.

# data[].attributes.body
I chose this photo because it is both a photo of an important place and people to me. It was taken at the coast on a hike, which is something that has made me happy during the pandemic/a time where things tend to feel heavy and not positive. The photo is of my mom and one of my best friends.

(Color)                                           I was looking through the photos and I saw this one. I really liked how it was set up and I thought I could do that. I Grab my jacket and I asked my brother to help me take these photos. After the photos I edited them to be duller and I made a black and white version. I took the photos to a drawing app and made a border. I tried to copy as much detail as I could. I like this piece of art because I like fashion/clothes so I see the main part of this photo is the clothes, very formal. It makes me want to see/know more. I really liked how this photo turned out.
