The Idea

I'm going to be posting pictures on this blog for a project I have to do for one of my photography classes. I came up with this theme that I thought would be fun to do but i'm finding out it's a lot harder then i expected it to be ...heres the plan...

For my project I chose to explore homonyms (or one word with the different meanings) and polysemes (words with same spelling and distinct but related meanings). Considering there are tons of homonyms I narrowed it down homonyms relating to the human body. 
 In this project I want to show that the words are not only verbally similar but also visually.  As humans we tend to degrade animals and inanimate objects but in actuality we all serve a purpose and all the little things, that may seem unimportant, have a job and are necessary.  Hopefully this project will bring us back to basics by taking the human body breaking it down into words and showing how similar we are to these objects we so often consider of lesser value. 

So that's the general idea, now to take photos that i actually feel are good enough.
