Presentation Methods Rational

I chose to use my image that was a reflection of the Poem “The Second Coming” by William Butler Yeats. I researched the poem and understood that it is about the second coming of Jesus and the apocalypse. I reflected on the poem depicting the apocalypse as it would appear to me, in my own city.

I shot a panorama of Canberra from Mt Ainslie and photoshopped the image to appear apocalyptic with the cross (the universal sign of Christianity) appearing. I printed the image large, so the viewer can see the detail in the image. The intention was to make the image appear as a record of the apocalypse as if displayed in a museum, the attached identification plate is also a reference to hanging in a museum.
