Carpets and Textures by Claude Essman & Ashish Sachdev

 

The theme of our Photo Essay is Carpets which is a perfect example that demonstrates the concept of everyday aesthetics described in the Susan Murray reading. Carpets are the base of our every steps in everyday living and common lifestyle that is an unnoticed part of our routine.

Murray describes photography as a phenomenon that “has become less about the special or rarefied moments of domestic living and more about an immediate, rather fleeting display and collection of one’s discovery and framing of all the small and mundane" (Susan Murray)

Carpets are the nucleons of the small and mundane everyday ignorance. All the  pictures in the slides are clicked on the iPhone 4s and therefore some grainy textures. This Grainy quality of few pictures reflects Murray's discovery that there is a place for both perfect and imperfect photography. Essentially through our photography and editing we wanted to illustrate the Commonness and mundane attributes of the everyday walked all over carpet.
