They were at a camp full of unemployed workers at the time. The Great Depression took away many people's livelihoods. It took people homes, money, but most important, their spirit. People lost hope during that time as they lose their jobs and they had to find ways to survive. Lange showed in this photograph the despair and the sense of hopelessness and it is really easy to see but most importantly feel it.]]> 2023-10-17 16:01:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751091705 ramirezf9_ https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751632551 Lange started her career in California, as throughout the 1920's is when she would work on her craft. She was notable photographer who would do much of her work to promote awareness for certain issues around the world just like she for the "Migrant Mother". She would work on many different project throughout her life that would serve to be provide eyes to global situations around the world, not just the Great Depression. It was just the nature of her photography, she wanted people to feel whatever is going on during the time through her work. She wanted people to connect with the photograph and for it to start a discussion about an abundance of social issues.]]> 2023-10-17 23:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751632551 ramirezf9_ https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751785888 Lange wanted the photograph to support the programs that created by President Roosevelt to help with the end of the Great Depression. It was programs that were meant to provide possible resources to people in need. This photograph would absolutely be a catalyst for possible change, just like Lange attended it to be.]]> 2023-10-18 01:24:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751785888 ramirezf9_ https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751795491 The amount of money that was sent to the camp where the family was staying at, days after the release of that photograph. It included enormous amount of resources and aid to the family. However the family never could receive the money, as the family was no longer at the camp.]]> 2023-10-18 01:29:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751795491 ramirezf9_ https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751841499 The photograph provides various of meanings and definitions, however it was inspired by many arts, no art more however than the Madonna and Child. This art represented warmth, showed vulnerability, and display the love for the child and the pain you would go through for them. As you can see in the picture, a mother is holding his child with a look of concern and heartbreak, similar to Lange photograph. ]]> 2023-10-18 02:00:59 UTC https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751841499 ramirezf9_ https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751849680 What I was trying to display what that Lange photograph showed struggle, hopelessness, and the obvious need for help. It showed a mother not knowing what she could do to provide for her family. I just wanted to provide context into the photograph and show how it represented a dark time in the world. How families try to pick up the pieces of their spirit and heart that was stripped away from them due to the Great Depression. It was to explain how one photograph can tell someones story and many others story. It allows you to connect in a personal level like no other.]]> 2023-10-18 02:06:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751849680 ramirezf9_ https://padlet.com/ramirezf9_/b4roebjrwz9a001j/wish/2751863112
