This piece was for the surreal self portrait project, which was to me another self portrait project pictures, so I decided to do something wacky. Essentially what I did was take a picture of the Golden Gate Bridge one day, and then use an old picture of me from earlier. I took the old picture of me and enlarged the height so that I was taller than the bridge despite being far away from the top arch.
There is no pattern in this picture, focuses on singular objects, the picture of me contrasts well to the bleakness of the bridge. I am being emphasized by being taller than the top arch of the bridge, and this picture has asymmetrical balance like most of my pieces do. This picture has unity because the elements of design that are present appear to be working, although I should have added something extra it doesn't matter.
The piece means something with some kind of hidden message, I think it means something that involves getting taller. In my opinion, the message is, if you try, it doesn't matter on the outcome you get better/taller because you tried, not what happened after. Although my opinion might not matter anymore after doing so many of these descriptions, still up to the viewer to decide like all art.
I feel that it is successful, in making a very surreal kind of picture with me being taller than the Golden gate bridge and all. The elements of design work decently in this piece, not completely ignored while not sticking out too much. The picture's worth is up to the viewer to decide, despite me thinking that it's decent but not spectacularly interesting.
