Diptych Concept Assignment

  I want to show the gap between the rich and the poor. After the reform and opening, China got huge progress. A bunch of people get richer and richer through development, but there are also a lot of people who didn’t get the chance at the beginning, and then because they are poor, they get less chance to become rich after, they get poorer and poorer.

  What I want to do is to take a picture of a fancy house, both the front and back. And then I will take pictures of a lot of poor places in China, and put the elements of that poor house with the back of the fancy house. And I will use photoshop to organize those elements, the back of the fancy house may in the top of the picture, and then the poor houses and dirty workplaces, and the color will gradually be faded into black and white. And the elements of each layer will from less to more. To show that the people who get money and more rights are the minority, but the majority are still suffering poor.

  The two picture shows the two side of a city, and further, show the two sides of the country. The city has a fancy and brilliant surface, but the poor still exist and accompany by the brilliant.
