After First critique

After our critique we were discussing, i saw how we were used to putting people under categories or stereotyping them due to what they work, or what they where or how they look, and that most of us have categorized our lifestyles under the persona's occupation. Through that i decided to look at a person and try to live in their life, and see what they do every hour to really determine and compare their lifestyles.

I decided to choose five women, and see how age, occupation and belief really change each lifestyle. 

Five categories:
Businesswomen
Housewife- working at home
Student (university)
Model 
Artist(waitress)

Businesswomen:
30 years old
graduated early
has her own business
she is well off/ very independent and structured

(followed my aunts life and see how she works and read about people's experiences to determine the lifestyle)

Student:
Just learning to be independent
Rushed
Face-booking
Drives

(i tired to mimic what most students here do)

Housewife:
She has a son
Works from homed
her son and husband are priority
she is inpendant, multitasking 

Model:
Running all over the place
hectic life

Artist/Waitress
Does a lot of things to cope
Loves art
Casual
bar-tends at night

Fatma J, P2.1 Process/b

after the last Critique, we had the chance to retake our photos in terms of Quality or angles. 
but i didn't retake mine because i want to know how far my ability can go with the things i did so far. Do i really need to retake some photos? i didn't feel the urge to do so however. 

we were put into groups at this day
and were told to take out photos and arrange them according to life-style

Team members:
Aisha
Fatma Jassim (me)
Sahwa
Asma

Life Style we decided are:
1-Childhood
2- Teenagers
3-Working age
4-Old

and took all the 10 Categories 10x10= 100 <<>

after the tiring exercise, we were told, again, to do the same task but individually. However, this time, we have the access to use classmate's images to come up with 5 different lifestyles

But, we don't have to use 10 images to describe the lifestyle
but the only thing we must be and have: is Divergence!
