Conkers – VISUAL DEVELOPMENT – Everyday Geometry

The Everyday Geometry assignment seems like a challenging assignment. Starting from the beginning and to experiment with the camera and my ideas, I found some conkers on an autumnal walk and decided to photograph them arranged in different geometric shapes. The conkers themselves are shaped closely like circles or spheres, with each one being unique as no conker is formed the same. Arranging a handful of these conkers into other geometric shapes further communicates the intention of the assignment. Also, conkers can be nostalgic as they bring back memories of conker picking and battles as a child, which most people can relate to, therefore adding another meaning to the image.

Here are my results:
