Sustained Investigation statement

 How do females sit? 

I plan to highlight the act of sitting. There are many different ways of how a human sits down and also there are many opinions about how a certain gender should sit. I want to capture all the ways one can sit either accepted by society or opposed by society. My project will be done in and out of the studio because I want to create a variety of images with different posture and poses. Also, I will use my digital camera t0 convert the photos to black & white. Majority of society believe that women should sit with their legs crossed because it’s lady-like and men can sit however, I believe this opinion should be changed due to how our society is today. My sustained investigation will contain a collection of girls sitting but focusing on the “man-spread; they will be able to sit however they choose to on the ground, in a chair, on a couch, etc. In conclusion, my project will have a powerful meaning behind the simplicity of a portrait.
