LO5 - Photography Exhibition

Pictured above is how I would like to lay out my photography exhibition- including the white box in the bottom left hand corner which would include the name of the exhibition and a description of its themes. This is the composition I have selected for my images as it shows the relations between each sub-culture photographed. I specifically chose to put the two 'chav' photos next to each other so that you could see the contrast between how I had edited two very similar images; one with enhanced colours and a stark contrast between the model and his surroundings, the other more natural with a subtler editing technique.
I only chose two portrait photographs to edit and use as my final images so I placed them at opposite ends in order to spread them out and break up the reoccurring landscape pictures. The two portrait photos are both of my Hipster model and are very different; placing them on conflicting sides infers the difference between the stereotypical artificial hipster photo (right) and the more heavily edited yet natural image (left) as the subject is smiling at the camera and striking a more authentic pose. There are two photos of the Goth that were placed in my final exhibition and these are placed one atop the other. How close the pictures are makes the contrast between them far more obvious, similarly to the Hipster the top image shows the mocking of the stereotype whereas the lower image breaks away from the stigma. If they were placed further away it would not necessarily be as obvious. This composition also allows photos of varying sizes to be hung on the exhibition walls. The largest images are the ones I feel best convey my original intentions, often also being the ones I want to use to draw the viewers eyes to the smaller details e.g. Kayla's full outfit in the far right photo.
The presentation of my photographs could be improved firstly by making the images span a couple of walls instead of just the one as I would probably be granted more room in the event of an exhibition. Doing this would also give me the opportunity to put names and descriptions next to each photograph instead of the whole collection, which would provide the viewer with more information about my intentions. One of the main issues of the visual appeal of the layout of my exhibition is that the right hand photographs of Kayla and Brad don't quite correspond with the height of the rest of the images- making them look a bit out of place.

I have considered the sizing of each of the photographs:
Brad Large Peace Gardens - 50x33.3cm
Brad Small Cemetery - 30x20.1cm
Kayla Large Wall - 20x30.1cm
Kayla Small Peace Gardens - 20x30.1cm
Alex Photographs - 30x20.1cm

When it comes to profit I would like to sell the prints of the photographs and possibly posters from the events advertisement. The prints would be sold in two different sizes: 50x37 at £15 and 30x20 at £10, nothing larger as having done some research I have discovered particularly big prints tend to sell less. I should hopefully sell enough of these to make a decent profit but not as many as a well known photographer whom had exhibited their work previously. The posters I could sell from the event would be at £3 each as being cheaper may make people more likely to buy it if they can't afford a print.
