Homage to Tina Modotti

For my Media Arts class we were told to choose a well known photographer that inspired us by the photography they took. The photographer I chose was Tina Modotti. I chose her because I liked that her work is very cultural like and it also keeps me interested and thinking.















Tina Modotti, like other photographers, began taking photographs in the 1900's. She inspired me by the way she would take photographs of The Mexican Culture and the way every photograph she took represented something or had a story behind it. I plan on paying homage to her by taking photographs of my culture which is The Mexican culture that she would take photographs of. I also plan on taking photographs of people and things that mean something to me or help describe me and my life just like she did.



I also plan on taking photographs of babies or infants with their mothers  because i've noticed that she uses children and women a lot. Maybe because being a mother is said to be the best thing something could ever happen to a women.
