I actually really liked not being able to plan out what I was doing. It actually took away some of the stress of the project. It forced me to find meaning in a photo that I really had no connection to which is difficult to do but also a refreshing twist. Appropriation isn't really a problem for me because I like trying to reflect on all of the possible meanings for a single picture. The fact that it is someone else's photo might bother other people but I don't see an issue because I am changing the meaning and adding more to it.
My message is that we become corrupted as we grow up. As a child we are so innocent and we don't see most of the bad things in this world. Unfortunately as we grow older we are exposed to the terrible things that happen. I took the picture of the little boy having fun and put this message up to represent how his perspective on life will be changed.
