Self Visualization Updated

While working on my self visualization project, I realized that I was heading in the complete wrong direction and had to turn around and retrace my steps. Some of the images remain, but the final concept is completely different. The piece ended up consisting of three pieces. On each piece were the unifying factors of the background, which was made up of different sections of walls of a house that I spent a lot of time in, crowds from all of the shows that my band has played which consist of most of my closest friends, and the main photos which I still made them have that "old" look to them. The middle piece is still of me, but on the left is the bay in Bayonne, while the right is the ocean in California. The meaning behind all of this is fairly simple. My band started in the first frame, and where I want it to go is the last frame. We all want to be the first band in Bayonne to get out, and that's what I am trying to show here. The house is significant because I have done most of my growing up here since high school. It was like our clubhouse and a place we could always go. It was recently sold and I probably won't be able to step foot in there again. This direction was easier to approach and see and I'm glad I went with something that was more comfortable to me than trying to create something I didn't really know.
