Major words that came up and seemed to stick out were: Imaginary science, making evidence, memorial, sacred, realist versus romantic, sublime.
Sublime = danger and are these images poking fun at sublime or are the settling for the best sublime we can reach today?
What's the emotional spin here? (beauty in art came up with this question too)
We said as a whole the body of work is a sublime but as individual images they are near misses and there is a nice tension in that. It also brings an element of humor (do you want that?)
What does it mean for you to be using a canning jar
Are you a Thoreauvian?
There was a comment about the energy of these images, right now they seem a little static/ a little safe. Like you are friends with nature.
Get freaked out/ maybe go spend the night out in nature (or would it be your back yard as that is a near nature)
Be thinking about temporality of things and how time is a factor in your images.
Also as a character do you need a trait for your outfit.
Suggestions included: monocle, pocket watch. Something subtle but is defiantly there and gives you a little more then a neutral stance.
Things to look at Le Musee Patamencanique (which is closed at the moment but here is a thing that Matt wrote about it)
Also take a peek at Bryan Burkhardt
